MORE INFORMATION:<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery summer, we create new additions to our Flower Power collection, inspired by all the flowers blooming in our yard this time of year,\u201d said Dale Ocasio. \u201cThe flowers make the bees happy, and they make us happy, too. Flowers, in all their shapes, sizes, and curious embodiments, keep finding their way into our artwork and hold a prominent place there.\u201d<\/p>\n

‘Midnight Voyeur,’ by Danielle Branchaud<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2019Midnight Voyeur,\u2019\u201d stated Branchaud, \u201cwas inspired by an uncanny moment in time, deep in the throes of night and nestled in the heart of the natural world, where there is only you and the wild that surrounds you. In these moments we often encounter visitors, such as this owl, who serve to remind us that we are never truly alone.\u201d<\/p>\n
