These have evolved over years: from often adding botanical elements to other works, the garden is slowly taking over.
These pieces are made from porcelain which allows for the glazes to be very bright and saturated against the white surface. They are each carved individually, with a dark inlay glaze to bring out the image, followed by painted accents and a final dip.
The botanical series is inspired by bounty, fruitfulness (literally) and a love of vintage botanical watercolor studies. I enjoy how these depictions of plants historically served an educational purpose, thus depicted a plant often with fruit and flowers in a naturalistic way, even though the species not actually show the flower and fruit stage in the same season.
