Lyn Foley, Gretchen Coates, and Anna Lear created beautiful, memorable pieces, each interpreting the palette in a unique way. I’m delighted by how different each piece is, even though the color scheme is the same. Gretchen leaned toward lighter, paler expression, Lyn and Anna used bright, fully saturated version of the palette members.
