Botanical Studies

These works are an artistic take on the time honored tradition of scientific herbaria where dried and pressed plants are mounted and stored for long-term scientific study. These pieces are meant to be shared, to adorn and decorate the home, bringing nature closer.

Available in three sizes, each botanical study is a single flower species mounted on handmade watercolor paper with plant identification label. The bloom may appear as one flower or a small cluster, depending on its natural form. This format highlights the unique structure and botanical detail, ideal for collecting or building a gallery wall over time.

Plants used in these Botanical Studies are gathered from my home in Santa Fe, my land at 9,000’ in the Jemez Mountains of New Mexico, and occassional collecting trips across the Southwest. I keep over 40 varieties of Southwest wildflowers and native plants in stock. Contact me if you have a specific plant you are looking for.

A Botanical Study may be purchased as a botanical sheet, top matted, or framed. Frame options include natural wood and gold.
