I was so surprised and excited when an eagle-eye follower of mine on Instagram spotted my Anthropologie print "Italy Spring" in photos of the Royal Horticultural Society's Chelsea Flower Show a few weeks ago in the UK!

The print was used in a gorgeous greenhouse Floral Party design, styled by talented Stylist and author Selina Lake. I am drooling over her design and all the gorgeous flowers. Sadly, I did not spot any photos of the Queen with my work, but I suspect, had she seen it, she would have been enamored.

Thanks so much to Selina Lake and her team for including my work in your dreamy RHS Chelsea Flower Show design!

The print is available through Anthropologie and Anthropologie EU.
Recently I visited the house and gardens at Dumbarton Oaks, an historic estate hidden away in residential Georgetown in Washington, D.C. I was awe-struck by the grounds, so tree-covered among the hills that you forget you're not in the middle of the countryside!
I took several weeks in June and July and experimented with acrylics on raw canvas for the first time. I mostly work on wooden panel and paper in my current practice, and it's been years since I worked on canvas.
After nearly 4 years, I am finally re-exploring florals in a full collection!
