featured artist: Denise Marta-Burch
"My approach to work reflects my training as an illustrator. I enjoy creating bold, colorful images that tell a story, often with humor. To balance the energy of that work, I combine watercolor with colored pencil for a more serene and intricate style in my botanicals."
