Natural Treasures Challenge -- March Theme is Desiccated

We are coming to the end of a very long and snowy winter here in Ottawa. Fittingly, the theme for our March Natural Treasures is Desiccated. We challenged artists to find something leftover from last year's growning season as their subject matter. We received eight pieces of art with subjects ranging from dried flower and seed heads, field flowers to fruit to fungi.
