Misty Arboretum

I always try to visit botanical gardens when I travel, as they make great places to get amazing images. I captured this moment in the early morning as the misters started watering the tropical orchids. They’re beautiful in Hawaii; in Colorado we just don’t have that much humidity.

Pigment Ink Transfer to an acrylic panel

Unique Edition: This is a unique edition – each new, signed piece of fine art is hand made and will vary slightly.

About the process:

My work begins with a photograph taken on my travels as I explore the world. I work with them to create a digital collage, then print using a special process that allows me to transfer the image to another surface that I’ve also hand-made. For more information about the processes, including information on upcoming workshops, please see my website: www.carrielhotka.com, or www.dassart.com.

Please note: Due to variances in how monitors and mobile devices are calibrated, the color you see may vary slightly from the actual work.
