The digital collages in this exhibit contain flora and fauna sourced from the internet or from the artist’s own photography. Each piece offers a unique visual journal, intriguing visitors to experience nature through a lens of whimsical storytelling and rich, visual details. Look closely and you may notice recognizable elements, such as flowers and mushrooms, from Lauritzen Gardens.

Gail Speckmann says that if you love a flower, it will open up to you. In this exhibit, each painting aims to capture the beauty and spirit of flowers. Though their lifespan as living flowers is fleeting, the artist hopes the painted images extend our time to contemplate and savor each one, almost opening up to them to have a conversation of sorts.
