About this collection:
Garden grows highlights my love for flowers and Botanicals and the study and simplification of the flower as a single and powerful entity on its own, in its entirety. I'm in awe of nature and have a fascination with the natural world and the process of growth. From seedling, to pollination to full bloom, it's a wondrous and inspiring process. I just love the vast array of shapes and colours that make up our world and are the very fabric of our existence.
