Finished up my latest design last night in Procreate😊
Am currently obsessed with vines, especially invasive ones with beautiful blooms. Like many cities in the South, there are many places here that have been taken over by it; an old greenhouse, an electrical box, a path in the woods. Anyway, I think I might spend the rest of the summer designing patterns around all these vines that want to envelope and transform.

It's been super rainy here for days but at least my garden Cosmo plant is giving off sooo many blooms😍

Just finished printing several sets of these fun paper coasters with a transfer print of a small leaf from my Rabbit foot fern. I've had that fern for years and love it's lacey look and furry "rabbit foot" ends.
These will be available at my next event, but he Browse and Stroll market on Saturday.

Started yesterday morning with coffee and an amazing botanical book, The Art of Botanical illustration. Was particularly drawn to these 15th century drawings and woodcuts of the Mandrake plant.
A perennial herb, the Mandrake can be found in many ancient texts as an anesthetic, fertility treatment, and aphrodisiac.
Because the root of the plant has a human like form, legend is that you would hear a scream when digging it up😳
I ended up doing these 2 loose watercolors inspired by it. Might do a few more because I really enjoyed the process 😊

Really love how this watercolor for my Mom for Mother's Day turned out🥰
BlackBerry Lily and purple Vetch.

Lots of plant growth happening in our Community garden and along our nature trail. 🥰🌱

2nd printing of my Hydrangea flowers- this time in 2 shades of purple. These eyepillow and neck wrap prints will be available at my next event on May 24th @ The Browse and Stroll is n downtown Travelers Rest ☺️

Missing the tulips already so I made this fun collage of some of the different ways I’ve worked with my tulip drawings. I really do consider myself a mixed media artist because I equally love Printmaking, painting,and digital pattern design. It always begins though witha pencil or pen ,sketchbook + a sunny garden. 🥰🌷

Ladybug and Red Clover collection! Planning on adding this to the Spoonflower shop I’m working on launching this month😁 which is your favorite color palette?
A big thanks to for her Craftsman Design class which inspired this fun print!
