texas biennial happy hour

Yay, time for the Texas Biennial again... we did some flowers for their pre-event happyhour.

"Continuing the Biennial’s aim of providing 'an independent survey of contemporary Texas art', Rutledge has selected 49 artists drawn from a pool of almost 800 applicants living and working throughout the state. The artists represented include both emerging and established talents, and the exhibition will include recent works created in a range of artistic media from painting, sculpture, drawing and print, to photography, video, installation and performance."

everlasting botanicals at howl

I dropped off a few arrangements of permanent botanicals at Howl - dried palm leaves, banksia blooms and mossy branches mixed with a few succulents, bird's nests and antlers. Not as spring-y as Sabia's display, so I might add in a few butterflies this week...

lance armstrong's livestrong holiday party

Pollen had the honor of donating flowers for Livestrong's holiday party at The Austonian this past December. Usually yellow is the color of choice, but for this event the planners were thinking something more unusual might be better. Fuschia coxcomb and gloriosoa lilies were the perfect fit.
