plants

I have always been amazed by plants and seeds, for their innate beauty and their symbolic qualities. Having lived mainly in small desert towns in the western U.S., I especially love desert plants and their abilities to adapt to harsh environments. They capture the spirit of hope, resiliency and the rugged beauty of the west.

Alina,

I love all of those images - so beautiful and strong at the same time.

I really like this new series. The Arizona Museum for Youth features an exhibit artwork of desert plants, and I have to say yours are better than many of the pieces in their collection.
