Carrots Vegetable Shadow Box

$85.00

Carrots Vegetable Shadow Box

I love the way these carrots seem to dance and twirl with one another, sometimes even intertwining and dancing together! Their graceful shapes and vivid colours make them one of my most popular pieces.

Product Details:

Each piece is individually handcrafted from preserved vegetable slices that I create using organic vegetables grown in my home garden. They are mounted on a textured, cream coloured background, double matted, and framed in an elegant but simple black frame under glass. They come ready to hang and have an attached stand as well.

These frames are perfect in groupings to fill a larger space. Please check out the nine other vegetables in Collections under Small Vegetable Frames.

As is the nature of botanicals, no two are ever exactly alike, and your piece will vary slightly from the one pictured.

Medium:  pressed, preserved organic vegetable cross-sections

Dimensions:  9" x 11” x 1

About the Artist

I am a botanical artist who has developed my own unique style. Utilizing the vegetables, herbs and flowers cultivated from my cottage garden, I create a collection of show stopping wall hangings. Throughout my 30 plus years of practice, I have developed a range of drying, pressing and casting techniques for capturing the beauty of my homegrown plants in my art.

My work uses delicate cross sections that I create by using a razor to cut through the centre of each vegetable, preserving the roots, stems and seeds. I have spent years developing a process for pressing and drying these perfect cross sections and retaining their integrity. My finished works capture the vivid colours, varied textures and delicate inner details of each vegetable.

As an artisan I aim to draw the viewer in, and surprise them as they look more closely into the intricate beauty of each piece. My work has been showcased and highlighted in juried artisan shows across Canada since I started my craft. I have also exhibited in local boutiques, shops and art galleries. I currently reside, cultivate and create in the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia.
