Mixed.Media #recycledart edition.
Plastic is calling me and asking to be used in my practice. I spent a day in my garden testing materials. This kind of tinkering always opens new doors and refeshes the art palate #greatful

One of the many reasons I choose native plants for my garden is so that the butterflies and all wildlife will have a place to rest as they pass through. When my son sees the butterflies and bees he is delighted and enchanted in a way that we often forget to be. I am reminded to look closer and treasure the moments when butterflies fly by.

I’m working on cold stratifying my #milkweed. I will have seeds for the workshop in March and started plants for the workshop in May! Milkweed is the host plant for monarch caterpillars and provides food for many pollinators. I have butterfly, common, and rose milkweed.
