Slipper Orchid

Paphiopedilum cv., Colored Pencil on Film by Eliza Jewett

Growing up in a semi-rural setting in the San Francisco Bay Area, Eliza was inspired to explore, draw, paint, and write about nature from an early age. As a biology major in college, she painted and drew plants as a largely selftaught hobby. Although her interests in science and art once seemed to be in conflict, they are now combined through work that communicates science visually. Currently working as a staff illustrator at scientific publisher Annual Reviews, Ms. Jewett also produces botanical art, freelance illustrations, and graphic designs.

A catalog of the artwork and profiles of the artists is available online from the ASBA for $20 plus shipping & handling. http://www.amsocbotartists.org/ASBA-Catalogs.html
