With the beginning of COVID-19 changes I found myself experimenting with natural dyes and leaf prints. In some cases these were the beginning layer of prints or book forms. This has been a time of introspection, an intimate look at my daily life, the weather, the environment, the political world and the creatures I coexist with. Some botanical pieces feel complete within the one process, others become a layer of a multi layered existence and yet others become folded and combined into intimate book forms.
