Dried elephant ear leaf (the surfboard)
Elephant ear leaves can grow larger than a person's torso, big enough that one leaf makes a whole board.
The big leaf carries adventure on its back.

“Every leaf, twig, petal, and seed becomes a brushstroke.”
When we were at the sea with my granddaughter, there were surfers riding the waves. That was the inspiration.

The original composition was made entirely from real botanicals.
The Botanicals Behind the Artwork
Shirley arranged each leaf, pod, stem, and natural fiber by hand before photographing the finished composition.
Elephant ear leaves can grow larger than a person's torso, big enough that one leaf makes a whole board.
The big leaf carries adventure on its back.
Tradescantia leaves flash purple underneath, a trick that helps them use every scrap of light.
The bright stripe is the surfer's own signature.
Young sunflowers track the sun across the sky all day and swing back east overnight.
Sunflower yellow means warmth and open joy.
Lavender keeps its scent long after drying because the oils live in the flower itself, not the stem.
Lavender is the smell of unhurried summers.
Plumbago climbs by hooking its sticky sepals onto anything passing, including trouser legs.
Blue plumbago stands for calm and easy days.
Before rubber and foam, dried plant fibers like cotton stuffed the world's pillows and clouds alike.
Soft clouds stand for daydreams and light hearts.
