Abundance

A series of nature inspired geometric designs.

Each of these original paintings contains only natural, hand-made paints based on historic recipes from a time pre-dating petrochemical ingredients.

Absolutely one-of-a-kind.

A full apothecary of plant and mineral based pigments, resins, oils, tinctures with applied leaf metals makes each one a celebration of nature in all its diversity and wonder.

These paintings represent years of research, many adventures sourcing genuine materials and the artist's great love of nature and humanity.

For more info & full list of materials used, please see each individual artwork in the gallery

These are nature-forward, real life paintings...
