In the tradition of Mise en abyme and Tromp l’oeil, this series of paintings by Columbus artist Robert Falcone portrays medicinal weeds as classic botanical illustrations. The plants are beautiful, often edible and helpful for a variety of therapeutic purposes. Falcone says that understanding nature’s bounty will be an important survival skill as our civilizations begin to crumble around us.

As a visual artist using sequins, beads and found objects Nancy fills empty space with beauty.
