Each year, we reach out to our clients to discover which of their commissioned projects resonated the most.
This year, natural history illustrator Lizzie Harper selected a project that beautifully intertwined her passion for nature and her love for learning. Commissioned by the UK Overseas Territories Conservation in collaboration with the Montserrat National Trust, Lizzie was tasked with creating a series of 15 botanical illustrations of popular medicinal plants found in Montserrat. These illustrations were intended for both identification and educational purposes. This is the second set of 15 plants she has worked on for the client, with the first set completed in 2023. Additionally, the illustrations were adapted into line pen and ink drawings, serving as engaging coloring sheets for schools across Montserrat.
