This has been a busy month! I have pieces in 4 different exhibits here in Colorado and had 4 Opening Receptions to attend!
The first one was an exhibit curated by Mary Williams at the Parker Adventist Hospital in Parker Colorado. I have 4 pieces hanging in their gallery and the reception was fun! Best food ever! Here’s a photo of my pieces.

My initial idea was to have a white field of snow for the “flowers” to poke through and that’s why I added an additional layer of white as the 4th layer. So, I started cutting through to reveal that layer on the smaller circles on the outside of the piece. I like this look but now I think it would look boring if I did this everywhere. What do you think?
