DCWS Meeting - May 26

Big Challenge Show&Tell

A few months ago, our members got a magazine clipping at random. Their challenge was to create a work using the colors illulstrated in the image they got. The election of the winners was made by a secret vote of the members. Congratulations to the winners and a big thank you to all those who participated in the challenge.

Prizes coming from Good Decade in Sidney BC were given to the winners.
