Singular Study: Plant Portraits - Artworks by Heeyoung Kim March 8, 2011

Botanical illustration is the place where art and science unite with beautiful results. Artist Heeyoung Kim is committed to portraying, in fine detail, our region’s most special and unusual botanical residents, from magical Milkweed to the elusive Green Dragon. This body of work – including watercolors, pencil and pen-and-ink drawings, and oil paintings – demonstrates Kim’s complete understanding of her plant subject. Her precise renderings are infused with expression, making a statement about the dramatic decline of the world’s plant life.
