Eco-Print Collage Collection
This collection was inspired by both my love of collage and nature.
Every piece is an arrangement of carefully chosen papers and placed stitches to celebrate the uniqueness
of each individual eco-printed plant portrait.

Each collage has an original eco-print combined with a variety of painted, stained, eco-printed and/or handmade papers with embroidery thread stitching for an added touch of texture. Ready for a standard 8” x 10” frame, or add a mat if you prefer to frame in a larger size.
Wondering what an eco-print is?
Eco-printing is the process of making direct contact prints from the natural pigment found in plants.
Bundles of paper layered with plant material are steamed or boiled to release and transfer the pigment to the paper.
No synthetic dyes, inks or used.
