Clover
Clover blooms, the experts say, are an important food source for our honeybees. They are humble little blooms we take for granted.

I find them beautiful and a reminder that our natural world provides much more variety in foodstuffs than we are used to seeing… Continue reading Heirloom Carrots
Spring Greens
Three of the first vegetables to come forward in spring: asparagus, spring peas and green onions. These small and light watercolors are perfect framed as a grouping or in a single print.
