Passion in Phoenix

long line of cubes.This was one of the weekly designs created for a restaurant
 
 
This was called simply suspended and was used during one of the sessions on how to hire a professional designer at The Special Event Conference

Last year Tony worked as part of Team Schaffer winning the Best in Show at The Philadelphia Flower Show. The Theme was Springtime in Paris and the entry was "An American in Paris" Each of the 4 areas showcased a scene from the movie. They also won Best use of Orchids and the SAF award for best use of flowers.

Grandma 19 is another image from Phoenix Art Museum Art and Flowers. This is my interpetation of a Raphel Soto piece that is a study in kenetics. When you see the piece of art it appears to move in a 3 demensional way. When this piece is placed and pinspotted, the light casts a shadow creating the same effect.

 

Tony worked for Fiesta Parade Floats for 6 years, serving as a lead leader and worked on several award winning floats.
