We are happiest

thriving in community

plants and people too

I completely enjoyed the "reverse process" poster special edition opportunity. Letting the draft inspire the words. There was so much energy, the sketch was bursting with joy! I have admired the vibrancy of Katie Mulligan's artwork, that coupled with Sarah Hardy's words about her lovely business "Found Things Plant Shop", eased the path to find the poem.

Some of my dear friends and acquaintances have lived in Syracuse and the surrounding communities. I feel part of the region through their stories. A huge thanks to the Syracuse Poster Project for re-introducing me to the elegant beauty of Haiku.

This exquisite challenge has been a balm.

Found Things Plant Shop is a super unique, welcoming space here in Syracuse. Being a fan of the natural world, the shop is also super inspiring to me as an illustrator. In my poster I wanted to capture the overflowing plants and natural feeling the shop has, and also tying in my love for vibrant color and line was a priority. Emphasizing the shop because of it’s being a small business was also key.
