A small environmental catastrophe occurred in my garden. Overnight the Fern bed collapsed because of the heat. The verdant prolific plants lay crumpled into themselves. I decided to preserve them in the language of paper and ink. This series is the result. Coincidentally, I was recovering from cancer surgery. I felt I had been deconstructed and making these prints calmed me–- reconstructed me.
Mayflies hatch above streams, especially trout habitats, thus providing food for fish. Their back wings are translucent, they are delicate insects with short life spans, but they return each season to take their place in the natural world.

Night Pollinators
I can't stop reflecting on the beauty of nature and how perfectly it all fits together. Night Pollinators and Nicotiana depicts the nocturnal life of moths evolved specifically to tend to plants that bloom at night with an aroma so sweet it draws them in. You can see the raw edge of the Lokta paper.

Fern Fish
The largest koi in my son's pond beached themselves on the rocks surrounding the water. It was a mystery. Was it related to their size or the size of the pond. They had lived for years without incident. I made this haunting piece as a question, the koi twisted into shapes of asking.
