"Old English Roses and Japanese Beetles" 


July is one of the best times in the garden because everything starts to come into bloom. However, you do need to race out to take cuttings before the Japanese beetles devour every last petal.

18" x 24" watercolor and gouache on paper. 



I love this painting as a pattern too.

"Night Loon and Wild Roses"

I'm really excited about this one! Our backyard is filled with all kinds of different roses and they're all blooming right now. Cutting big bunches of them to paint from has been heaven.  Prints will soon be available in my unitedthread shop. I also want to see this design on fabric. Maybe a pillow cover?!

Fiddle Leaf Fig


One of the most lovely house plants with all of its twists, texture, and varying shades of green! There is something so nice about painting a single plant and focusing on all of the subtle shifts in form and color.

Now available as a print in my Unitedthread shop!
