This piece is inspired by the lush hydrangeas that grace New England gardens in the summertime. Beverly captures the joyful spirit of these blooms through torn handmade paper, layering rich green leaves and vibrant shades of blue and purple to mirror the flower’s natural beauty. The figures reflect the harmony between nature and human connection, celebrating the simple elegance and color variations that make hydrangeas a beloved symbol of the season.
