I work at the intersection of design, horticulture, culture, and systems—helping people and institutions think clearly, act deliberately, and create lasting impact.

Following up on my earlier post— these are some of the great original graphics that Tin prints on his canvas pillows and canvases. (available at his Etsy site)

botanical and anatomical graphics the heart grows plants from Utilitarian franchise via www.pithandvigor.comI have no explanation for my attraction to botanical art mixed with anatomical or skeletal drawings….but it has been a consistent obsession for some time now.   Whatever, the idea of mushrooms and ferns and lily of the valley growing out of a real heart is just appealing….as is an acorn tree coming out of a skull.  Am I alone in this, or do at least a few of you also find this art interesting and appealing too?
