©2012 by Linda Warner Constantino for Linadona Botanica™
I am busy painting for botanical watercolors for the Surtex - the surface textile show in May 2012 at the Jacob Javits Center. This will be our second year for Linadona Botanica which is the name of the art licensing business run by my sister Dona and me. I have plenty of inspiration but a limited amount of time. I will be teaching Watercolor for the Illustrator this Spring at SCAD like I do every other quarter so that will keep my hand in the medium. The design above are Abuliton flowers also called Japanese Lanterns and probably a few other names. I just love how beautiful they are at every stage of their grow and they have continued to defiantly bloom all winter despite their delicacy. I love their tenacity!
Dona is handling the business side of things and lending her superb art directing skills wherever needed. If you come to Surtex, stop by and see us at Booth 455.
