Passiflora

By  Lisa Temple-Cox 2024 - 2025

Passionflower from the garden entwined around my red deer skull. This work is the first in a series exploring my love of both plants and skulls - the transience of verdant botany against the enduring life of bone, a nod to the vanitas.

Watercolour and colour pencil.
