About RVJamesDesigns

Sales 1,043
On Etsy since 2010
  • My faithful canine companion, Roscoe, died in Jan 2016 and I was devastated.
  • Soon after Roscoe's death, humans from his terrier play group, connected me with JJ who takes an ACTIVE interest!
  •  
  • The RVJames Designs "store" making a two-day appearance in Feb, 2018 at a Madison show.
  •  

Most of my artwork is botanical, with designs based on my own photographs. This emphasis on plants is not surprising since my training and career were in botany, horticulture and plant pathology and I'm a dedicated (perhaps fanatic) gardener. Native wildflowers are favorite topics.

You'll find my designs created from photos I've taken, mostly in my garden, on ceramic mugs and tiles; hand screen printed note cards (many designs based on native wildflowers) and cards with my original botanical photographs – suitable for framing; also matted photos and prints. The mug and tile designs can be placed on either item so if you see a design on a mug but REALLY want it on a tile (or vice versa), let me know and I'll make what you want to buy, appear on this site as quickly as I can!
