NUTCRACKEr<br />

TREE<br />

Over the years designer Jo Gatenby has admired<br />

the various stylized Christmas trees that so many<br />

artists and designers have come up with, whirls<br />

and swirls, words and themes, and wanted to try<br />

her hand at creating her own. A long-time lover<br />

of the Nutcracker Ballet, when she saw another<br />

artist’s version of this tree, she just had to create<br />

her own… The hardest part was turning actual<br />

photos of dancers into silhouettes that still<br />

provided enough detail to show their characters!<br />
