NOTES from the Artist

First and foremost, botanical illustration is not floral art! There are no backgrounds or pretty vases. A botanical illustration depicts the structure, color, and growth habit of a plant with scientific accuracy.

My art is who I am. It defines me. When I'm painting the hours fly by unnoticed. A friend once told me that I'm never more confident than when I have a paint brush in my hand.

Painting alone in my studio or teaching others to paint, I'm one of those lucky people who can honestly say I love my job.

P.S. If you're looking to get rich, find another profession!
