I couldn't help myself. I had to give my take on the well-worn concept of people missing out
on something spectacular because they're entranced with their phones. Not me of course. Other people. This is one of the rare all smalti (glass) pieces I've done. Because of that it's unusually vibrant compared to my other work. And that halo is real gold. Don't "miss out" on this piece. ; )
