Illustrations

“'Come forth into the light of things, Let nature be your teacher.” 

-William Wordsworth

I love to observe nature closely and create small ink pointillisms detailing form and the depth of color. I am so fascinated by the unique variation of layers and my little illustrations are my attempt to capture these fleeting moments. This practice has become a sort of meditation for me. Nature's lesson to slow down and be present.
