Petals in Rhythm is a collection of original abstract floral collages inspired by nature, movement, and quiet beauty.

Every collage begins with hand-painted papers that I create using acrylic paint, watercolor, a Gelli plate, stencils, and expressive mark-making. I then cut, layer, and arrange these painted papers and embellishments into botanical forms that celebrate texture, color, and rhythm.

I believe art has the power to slow us down and help us notice the beauty and rhythm found in the natural world.

My hope is that each collage offers a moment of calm, curiosity, and connection.

Thank you for visiting Petals in Rhythm. I hope you enjoy exploring the collection.
