In this presentation, Watson will share how close observation of botanicals, from growing them herself, studying their structures, and understanding their life cycles, becomes the foundation for her hand-carved block print designs.

Through a combination of image and demonstration, audiences will see how an artist looks at a plant and translates it into form: breaking organic material into shape, rhythm, and composition.

The talk offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at artistic process—bridging gardening, observation, and making—and invites audiences to see plants not just as inspiration, but as collaborators in creative work.

About the Artist:
Katharine Watson is an artist and printmaker whose work is rooted in a deep attention to nature, pattern, and the handmade. Raised between New York, London, and Hong Kong, she developed an early sensitivity to visual detail and design that continues to shape her practice today. She works primarily in linoleum block printing, carving her designs by hand and printing each piece individually on an antique press in her Portland, Maine studio. katharinewatson.com/
