I was at a meeting in Manchester recently and I mentioned one of my recent art pieces called 'Holly Sparkles 10'. I was told by a senior figure in diversity awareness, "Those art pieces are becoming iconic."
The first 'Holly Sparkles' picture was done in 2010.

It was re-interpreting pop art style images of Audrey Hepburn playing Holly Golightly in the film 'Breakfast at Tiffany's'. Like most of my recent art it's formed with fragments of waste CDs so it constantly changes colour wherever you stand. I encouraged people to sign and write anything they wanted around the image. When finished, it was sold during an auction.
Then in 2012 I decided to make another slightly different one that this time I called 'Holly Sparkles 2012'. This was a less rushed and so better made image (plus I was more practiced).

But now there is another Holly Sparkles picture called 'Holly Sparkles 10' celebrating the 10th anniversary of the annual trans supportive 'Sparkle' celebration in Manchester. Again I use waste CDs for the images of the dress and the gloves.
These are all images that are high light environmentalism as well as being visually spectacular, presenting constantly changing rainbow colours to promote diversity and equality but also to attract the eyes. That can only be good for business.
Promote art appreciation, show environmentalism and gain the appreciations of customers...
These images show clearly that these hard-wearing waste but specular CDs can be arranged to produce various images including company logos...
