Silverware or Whose Turn is it to Empty the Dishwasher?

7.25 x 11 inches mixed media on matboard covered with gesso, toilet seat tissue covers, newsprint. Watercolor, colored pencil, Caran D'Ache, India ink, black fine tip Sharpie were media used. I like how the gesso gives an impression of dishes back behind the silverware. Newsprint included words about food; this piece was entered into a weekend competition on WetCanvas online.
