Description: A 3D Triptych Pattern displaying symbiotic relationships; some at a molecular level and others with cryptic coloration.
Inspiration: "Jayme saw an amazing exhibition Alebrijes: Creations of a Dream World at Catigny Park, Wheaton, IL. Not only were the sculptures whimsical, colorful, and exciting, the families coming to see them were really taking time to look at them and then look at their surroundings where the gardens were planted with gorgeous hot-colored plants to embrace the art. The other inspiration is NCSU's Dr.Elisabeth Wheeler who works with microscopic imaging of fossils and modern woods. I am fascinated with these patterns." - Phil Abbott
Challenges: Phil's challenges included finding a place indoors to work with tall poles while Jayme's included learning to use an airbrush, thinking about layering in reverse to use multiple layers of stencils, and staying inside the lines.
