*LET*IT*SNOW*




We really let it snow at our Christmas party. Here are a few of the 'flakes' created on various rice papers, using hot wax and and watercolor. Each artist created an original, one of a kind, snowflake. This is proof that no two are ever the same. The last snowflake needs an owner??? Please leave a comment to let me know if it's yours. These first pictures show some of the artists at work. Let it snow!
