Winged pigweed — Cycloloma atriplicifolium — a native annual of sandy, disturbed soils that forms a distinctive rounded shape and tumbles like a tumbleweed when its seeds are ready to disperse. Its papery winged fruits catch the light and wind in equal measure. One of those plants that rewards a second look — easily overlooked, quietly remarkable. Illustrated for the Rockaway Field Guide, a field study of native and invasive plant species created in collaboration with the RISE initiative in Queens, New York.

A parrot tulip up close — fringed petals unfurling in deep violet and magenta against an electric yellow ground. The kind of flower that makes you reconsider flowers entirely. Painted with the attention usually reserved for something much more consequential, because it is. Part of the Studies series — observational and personal works in watercolor and digital media.

Butterfly milkweed — the bright orange native wildflower that monarch butterflies depend on for survival. One of the most important native plants in the Northeast, it has become increasingly rare as development and mowing remove the open, sandy habitats it needs.

Autumn olive — an invasive shrub that arrived with good intentions and stayed to take over. Fast-growing, nitrogen-fixing, and nearly impossible to eradicate, it now lines roadsides and open fields across the Northeast.

Found in the dunes and sandy margins of the Rockaway Peninsula, it is one of the few native species still holding its ground.
