Botanical

Illustrations and art about plants are not given the same prestige as portraits or historical narratives. However, there is a transcendental beauty within them that is almost primordial. Therefore, nature and the environment are a primary source of inspiration. This inspiration is beautiful but often unnoticed and therefore these pieces aim to bring to light what is hidden.
