Description
Lovers of botanical art will feast their eyes on the stunning collection of 80 works by the painter often compared to Georgia O'Keeffe. Rosie Sanders's botanical paintings lie at the extreme end of botanical art—they exude dynamism and sensuality in every brushstroke, while their richness of color sets her apart from her contemporaries. This large-format book showcases her finest paintings in exquisite detail, accompanied by excellent and accessible scientific commentary. Rosie’s glorious selection of flowers ranges from tulips to orchids, roses to irises, anemones to amaryllis, and she illuminates them by fascinating and skillful uses of perspective and light. Includes an introduction by renowned Swiss botanist Dr. Andreas Honegger.
