“Southwest Funk”
From Lima’s Picks

Lima's Opinion: When we think of the southwest corner of the US, we automatically think of turquoise, followed closely by "hot" colors like orange and yellow. This pick takes those colors and adds a new feel to the old stereotype. Don't be afraid to overuse any shape or color -- that's the point of this one.
