Into the Blue
The June Design Challenge
All you have to do for inspiration this month is to turn your eyes skyward. The pale blue of an early summer sky; the midnight blue of midsummer, twinkling with stars. Or imagine a body of deep water: from the depth of the ocean to the surface of a still summer lake, how many shades of blue can you conjure? The June 2018 Challenge will run from June 4-27, 2018.
