BOTANICAL ART
Observation is fundamental in this work and these paintings were developed from field sketches, notes and
studies. Basic forms and drawings were adjusted as each piece progressed and details were added as necessary.
The final paintings were woven together through shape, texture and color, until each piece reached its own
balance of structure, color and story.
