Herbarium by Anne Mason-Hoerter
In this series of herbs, I wanted to combine the style of 16th, 17th and 18th Century botanical painting with that of the detail found in scientific illustration. I want to explore positive and negative space. To combine different areas of focus which will result in a multi-dimensional image. To show the unique structure and shape of each chosen herb, and explore a modern form of botanical art.
Plants photographed include; purple sage, lavender, purple basil, red-veined dock, mint, and valerian.
