Pounded Flowers [maiden-hair ferns, impatiens, marigolds, coleus, petunias, geraniums, and small leaves]. All flowers and plant parts contain their own water and pigment – nature’s original watercolor! – and when you pound them onto watercolor paper, they transfer their sublime beauty to the page. I did not add any paint or other embellishments here, preferring instead to honor the plants for what they bring to the creation, allowing them to speak for themselves.
