Commissions

"Three Sisters Star" by Erin Dougherty was commissioned by Adina Rosenthal as a gift for her sister Deborah Hitt for a significant birthday, it's name refers to the sisters maiden name of Star. Adina had commissioned a piece ("40 Flowers" by Patty Spellman)for her other sister, Ziva Raney, a while ago, also for a significant birthday and it was such a big hit there was no question what she was going to get for Deborah.
