Gisa
and Johnny were my clients. The subject matter as well
as the design were up to me. Gisa recently was on safari
in Kenya with her mother. The large sky and unique quality
of the light there had made an impression on her. She also
loves bold colors, thus I focused on those elements so
the bench could always be a reminder of her wonderful trip.
The
sky is a gradation in not only color, but is size of tiles
as well.
