Ink on paper, original concept.

My botanical work has been taking various directions over the last couple of years, I’ve currently put my focus on botanical merges done with the human body. In an attempt to merge the natural plant environment and humanism, my dryads were born.

My new series “Raw Emotion” displays various qualities from influential and special people in my life. Selecting three qualities I admire about the select individual, and then picking the one I idolize the most, I then picked a flower and an herb that I felt applied to the quality and person the best.

I’ll let the pieces say the rest.

“Dryad: Compassion”

Dedicated to: Jenn
Qualities: Courage, Intense, Compassion
Flower: Lily
Herb: Chamomile

Always ready and willing to help, regardless of your mood, compassion was the quality that first came to mind when I thought of you. Compassion is a dangerous quality, and it takes someone special to be able to truly embrace it, because your good nature and wanting to help and understand people in need, can also leave you vulnerable. Thank you for sticking to what comes natural to you, helping the people you truly care about, and helping those who don’t quite deserve it at times.
