That’s what I decided my life would become if I were to follow my passion! Being a lifelong (self-taught) artist and a certified aromatherapist I combined my enchantment with botanicals several years ago to become a botanical artist and illustrator.
In this website I hope to share my adventurous journey of finding and creating plant portraits,the essence of botanical art, through the medium of graphite pencil and watercolor. Motivated by a strong sense of environmental responsibility, I'm currently documenting native as well as rare and endangered plants in the Texas Hill Country where I live. Botanical prints (also known as giclées) and original artworks are for sale.
Recently added to my series of herbal watercolors, WILDFLOWERS and OLIVES have been put on ceramic and glass decorative art tiles that can enhance any home decor; these art tiles have also been encorporated into gift products such as cutting boards, trivets and boxes.
As a certified aromatherapist my appreciation for the benefits of the plant world is profound. My line of aromatherapy products for the bath and body are handcrafted and made with oils that are nourishing for your skin. I use authentic unadulterated essential oils and organic products with no synthetic chemicals or alcohol.
