From the Artist: In my works on paper, I approach each growing thing with equal importance regardless of whether it is a weed, rare species, wildflower, or cultivated flower. I combine several species fused into single compositions, often to the point where the exact plants depicted are open to interpretation. I create unique blue and white cyanotype prints onto sheets of cotton paper and then I paint in countless layers of watercolor, gouache and ink. I am most interested in creating objects that feel both beautiful and mysterious. I want each painting to be familiar yet slightly outside of time. These works will always symbolize resilience to me. I want the content of the work to be a powerful experience. Not only because of the historical moment that they were made, but the process speaks to a kind of gutting and reconstituting. There
