This is lovely. To me this says "island" all over it. I can feel the passion you put into it... all your work, for that matter.

What a great mixed media piece, Mary! Great theme and use of all those different materials.

Mixed media is something that seems very difficult to do well, so I always enjoy seeing work by artists that make it look easy.
