“Save the pollinators” is a 17”x17” mixed media collage. A whimsical bee and flower with an environmental message.
“Patched leaves” is a 17 “x 21” watercolor sprayed over real leaves. I covered the white holes with cheesecloth and netting to fix the spots where the paint didn’t cover the paper after removing the leaves.  Salt crystals were also dropped on the wet paint.
“Woven cactus “ is 15” X 12” and was created by weaving through a watercolor painting of a cactus with strips of an abstract watercolor of a similar palette.  It is a brand new technique I used for the first time.
