Item Description

Betty’s inspiration for the vase comes from exposure to the wonderful art of the futurists, cubists and abstract artists who were able to show movement in their artworks by repetition of shapes.  She also loves the designs and colors of Bohemian folk art and was inspired by the medium and shape of the vase.  She has created a colorful and whimsical vase using scraps of vinyl which she cut, peeled and applied.  The vinyl was donated by Neon Products Inc.
