During the prime growing (and scanning) season, I often don’t have time, energy or inspiration to do any complicated scanner art. But I still like to scan plant parts and see what they’ll look like on screen. These collections then serve as fodder for later works when I have time but not much poking through the snow to work with. They still take on a life of their own sometimes.
