About
About
Embedded Files
I am a botanical artist specializing in watercolor and oil. In each painting, I strive for both botanical accuracy and a sense of liveliness, translating the beauty of a plant from life to paper. My goal is to share the elegance of flowers and the richness of the natural world through my work.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Art History from SUNY Stony Brook and a Certificate in Botanical Illustration from the New York Botanical Garden. I am also a member of the American Society of Botanical Artists.
