DescriptionA vibrant, slightly abstracted, floral motif creates the background of this lithograph, printed in bright pink, orange, yellow, and green. Layered on top of this visual bouquet is a circular and three-dimensional white flower. Its petals are created from hand-cut vellum paper, rolled slightly to create the conical shape of a flower petal, and applied to the sheet in concentric circles. The petals at the center of the flower have a gold circled pasted to each of their bases.
