Synergy 2 P07012-P00080 and a hard spar varnishThis colorful acrylic work is part of a series on synergy, a combination of elements that produce a total effect greater than the sum of the individual elements. To synergize is to value differencesto respect them and to use them to build on strengths. Bring a bit of this philosophy to your home with this piece, which was painted on stretched canvas with the sides painted a solid color. Ready to hang.
