This piece of driftwood from the Florida shores came to life in art class from our adult student's beautiful imaginations. We brainstormed what each person saw in the wood and brought the vision to life as a group. We concluded that it resembled a mother walking up through a meadow, holding a baby, and collecting flowers in a basket she carried over her head. As we were thinking of a name for our piece we shared our vision with Sister Fausta. Sister was reminded of the Madonna Dei Fiori - Our Lady of Flowers. She shared with us that there is a Sanctuary of the Madonna Dei Fiori located in BRA CUNEO, ITALY just 31 miles south east of Turin.
