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.
This vase is made from porcelain and glazed in a fluid ocher yellow with umber and emerald green, orange accents.
This piece was fired twice to encourage glaze run.
