An ode to my life in the desert.
A celebration of the light, textures, colors and plants of the Sonoran Desert.
A glimpse of the peace and openness the desert provides.
The extremes of color and heat.
Beauty in the landscape.
A lesson in survival and cycles.
From the intense heat to the monsoon rains.
A dedication to the stature of the mountains,
the presence of the saguaros
and the big blue sky.
A collection inspired by place.
The city where I met my husband and had my children.
My home for the last 17 years.
Dedicated to my late brother Aaron and the desert he called home.
Process
All patterns are hand drawn with paper and ink based on photographs I take. They are then turned into digital prints using adobe illustrator.
Many of the colors used in the prints are sampled from photos.
All patterns are original art by Stina Sanchez.
