Rainbow Boost door Melissa Watts
Verenigd Koninkrijk
Rainbow hues have been toned down and incorporated within this design. These have been placed horizontally to represent the sun and horizon, and pattern reflected, creating a mirror effect that would be achieved with the evidence of water/rain. All these aspects would naturally create a beautiful Rainbow.
