Sharon previously won the Kaleidoscope People’s Choice Award in 2016. The image will be used to promote the 2021 Kaleidoscope show. Sharon is the recipient of a working kaleidoscope designed and hand-blown by glass artist, Bob Pozarski. I felt that by using a vessel with a “face”, in this case a bunny, that I’ve added a bit of whimsy to an otherwise typical depiction of a vase of flowers. I loved the reflected colors in the surface of the pottery, and worked to capture that. With this particular image, I found the intricacy of the large organic peonies and the hard, shiny surface of the pottery to be a good contrast. I arranged and took many reference photos.
