"Vinea Florentes (Blossoming Vine)" Fine Art Print

"I very rarely plan out or draw what I’m going to make. Things come to me in dreams. In meditation. When I’m driving. I try to catch the idea when it floats by and remember it. “ Glam Couture Born 1974 BFA, Rhode Island School of Design MFA, Massachusetts College of Art Sue Freda is a multidisciplinary artist working across sculpture and mixed media installation.
