Dominion — Blush angelfish Botanical illustration has its own

Botanical illustration has its own long tradition — the kind of careful observational drawing made for scientific volumes that turned out to be as visually compelling as any decorative work

The Axiom collection finds its richest expressions when circles press together and the space between them becomes the subject

The Bough is its most delicate expression — bare winter branches hung with hearts in place of blooms

The discipline of geometry with the warmth of something hand-drawn

Dominion — Blush angelfish Botanical illustration has its ownThe same pride, held a little more gently. Blush takes the same maple leaf and lets it soften deep red easing into pale pink within each petal, the stem drawn in like a detail worth keeping rather than an afterthought. Where Scarlet says it plainly, Blush says it quietly. Both are still, unmistakably, about this country. For the kind of patriotism that doesn't need to raise its voice.
