Winning bidder will receive a framed, hand-signed 6 1/2 x 8 1/2 inch Floral Art piece of purple larkspur by award-winning floral artist Julie Anne (The James Company).  Julie Anne creates unique contemporary floral compositions, utilizing only the largest and most colorful varieties, harvested at the very peak of freshness, from some of the leading growers in the world.

To dry at the height of color, the blooms are placed in a special solution to preserve their unique perfection.  Then, each piece is transferred to a press and placed in a flash-dry processor that allows the blooms to dry at a rate that conserves the beautiful color.  Once preserved, Julie Anne begins her inimitable handiwork, utilizing the very best of blooms and applying in a creative technique.  Matted and framed behind glass, Julie Anne's floral masterpieces  demonstrate her love and passion for flowers and plants.  Julie Anne was inducted into the pre-eminent company of the most distinguished association of Floral Artists in the U.S. in 1989.
