We're getting ready for the Coronado Flower Show.  Carville Veech gave the club members an inspirational presentation on how to "wow" the judges.  She makes containers out of the discarded stuff we find.  Carville uses line and texture and color to make  poetic art with botanicals.

Dutch Master Designer Rene van Rems, AFID.  In preparation for the Coronoado Flower Show, we had some wonderful inspiration lessons at the February Demonstration Luncheon.  Rene was assisted by Kathryn Farley. A big Thank You! to Nancy Cranmer, event chairman.

The container IS
important.
So is texture.
