Botanical Collages


I’ve posted more botanical collages. There are fairies, a goddess and a sorceress (Sumac Woman,) and well as little miss muffets and well-dressed babies.

They are watercolor drawings made with the addition of dried, pressed plant material from my garden and colorful bits picked up on walks over the past few years. They are sort of a merging of the fashion sketches I make and collecting herbarium specimens.

Made with archival materials, they last for many years if kept out of direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. A few of the recent ones are still available to buy.
