It’s all coming together after weeks of taking pictures, making cyanotypes, Lino printing, Gelli-printing, cutting, gluing and stitching. So many steps to create a series of works depicting my love of trees. 🌳

A winter storm came with a force none of us will forget—old trees uprooted, branches scattered, vineyards flooded and so much more.
