Artist: Philip Shimko, Blowing Bubbles Floral Designer: Betty Frey. Vision: "I selected this painting out of the four that the artist had presented. Blowing Bubbles had an enormous amount of movement that I could interpret in my floral design. The brilliance of it excited my eye and helped me to select my flower choices."
