Original Art info:
”This 3-D illustration is a part of my Herbal Zodiac Series completed in 2019. Images were created with collaged pieces of hand-painted cut fabric, acrylic paint, ink, embroidery & threads suspended by nails. Each piece was created using symbolism from herbalism, animals, astrology and geometry to convey an intention.”

Herbalism & Magic: Vervain was considered sacred by the Druids and is used in creativity magic. The flowers attract pollinators such as hummingbirds.

Astrology: Aquarians are creative, intellectual, community-minded and visionary.

Zoology: The yellow hummingbirds depicted are very rare, and only exist as a hybrid of a Magnificent Hummingbird (colored fuchsia) & Anna’s Hummingbird (purple & green).

Geometry: Aquarius occurs mostly in the second month of the year, February. I incorporated a lot of open angles to make 2-sided shapes. The center design demonstrates how many ways 2 point can be interconnected.
