As an Ecologist I just love pouring over Janice’s paintings looking for all of the interactions she saw. In this piece there are a few pollinators, an herbivore, and a predator who will undoubtedly make this a tri-trophic cascade.
Locating faces here and there I find that most of the time her representations are accurate enough for me to identify the plants and animals to Genus if not species. This accurate reconstruction is one of the features I’ve always loved about Janice’s paintings.
