A Message From Laura Evans

I am honored to be participating in the People’s Choice competition during Spiva in Bloom. You can support my floral design with a monetary donation. The artist who raises the most will receive 50% of the total funds raised, while the remaining 50% directly benefits the George A. Spiva Center for the Arts, supporting scholarships, educational outreach, classes, camps, and community programming. Thank you for your thoughtful support! My artist statement: This piece is inspired by the quiet geometry and layered perspective of traditional Japanese interiors, where space is defined by both structure and openness. The black framework reflects architectural lines and creates a sense of order, while the florals bring life and softness. Repetition of color and form builds rhythm, while variation in texture and depth mirrors the feeling of looking through multiple spaces.
