Botanical Bonds
Weronika Anna Rosa is a visual botanical artist who explores the relationship between plants and humans. Originally from Poland, she is currently based in Lisbon, Portugal. Growing up in a family of scientists and artists, Weronika was surrounded by fresh flowers and potted plants, which naturally became the central theme of her work. She uses gouache on Kraft paper and Japanese golden ink to bring her visions to life.
