i love the intricacy of this garlic drawing. i have always been quite fascinated with bulbs and roots. this drawing truly makes you stop to observe the beauty in the ordinary and mundane. very beautiful!

Bev is my niece and all I can say is “FANTASTIC WORKS”. You can feel the very soul of the works she creates.

Thanks, Katherine. Readers may also be interested in this post on botanical art from Katherine's Blog, Making a Mark, which is where I found the lists of botanical artists that led me to Bev Byrnes's work.

For those of your readers who enjoy botanical art – and who live in or near London – there is still time to visit the annual exhibition of the UK Society of Botanical Art in Central Hall Westminster – it finishes on Sunday. It has over 700 works and entrance is free (for further details see http://makingamark.blogspot.com/2006/03/society-of-botanical-artists-is-21.html). I viisted the exhibition today – it’s extremely impressive with some very fine examples of drawing and painting – and a wider interpretation of botanical art then is frequently seen elsewhere.
