The natural world, the human body, and the life/death cycle serve as inspiration for my Botanical Series. These pieces symbolize the love, growth, and renewal in our lives as we heal from disappointment and loss. Mother Nature is powerful and transformative. Even after death, life goes on, and new seeds sprout and flourish from the soil. Below is a selection of works from this ongoing series.
