Carole Cleaver

Participating in Heeyoung Kim’s classes has been hugely inspirational for Carole Cleaver and she has enjoyed the camaraderie in her community of students. Prior to joining this group, she understood little about the ecology and habitat of so many of the intriguing plants that she loved to paint. Heeyoung has shown that the world of botanical art can include insects, birds, and plant communities that are intricately interwoven. Her joy in drawing and painting nature has grown because of her enthusiasm and guidance. Heeyoung’s gorgeous paintings and drawings provide awesome examples of what botanical art can be.
