Flowers, flowers, everywhere. I’m lucky to live in the beautiful seaside town of Santa Cruz, CA. Our temperate climate lends itself to year round gardens and as a nature artist, I’m always finding ways to bring that beauty indoors. I started pressing flowers long before I discovered the magnificent beauty of pressed seaweed and marine botanicals. On walks along the beach and in the meadows and forests near my home, wild flowers are in abundance. They grow in the sand dunes along the jagged cliffs leading down to my favorite beach, Greyhound Rock. Here are some of my favorites– Indian Paintbrush, lupine and dill pressed and sealed onto glass soap and lotion dispensers. This functional art is available for sale on Etsy.
