RAISING PEOPLE FROM PLANTS
Like language, drawing adopts, adapts, and appropriates visual language in diverse ways. This series of drawings (2003) share the techniques and formal vocabulary of scientific drawing and ornamental embellishment. In my home and studio, my plants encourage me to look at nature like an observant and quizzical botanist.
