winter RosseteLast summer, after visiting the Golden Gate Park’s Conservatory of Flowers in San Francisco California, I decided to create a series of illustrations about carnivorous plants and poisonous fungi. Inspired by botanical drawings from the 1800′s I started sketching and working in Illustrator and Photoshop (^__^) today I finished the first four illustrations…YAY!
