The piece titled "Eriophorum sp. and Drosera sp" beautifully captures the essence of nature's botanical wonders. In this illustration, we are transported to the enchanting landscapes of the Shetland Islands, where cotton grass (Eriophorum sp. ) and sundew (Drosera sp. ) plants flourish amidst their surroundings. The delicate strokes and vibrant colors bring these flora to life, revealing intricate details that highlight their biological significance. Dawson's meticulous attention to detail allows us to appreciate the complexity of plant anatomy as we delve into the world of botany. From monocots to dicots, she skillfully portrays various species within these categories, showcasing her deep understanding of plant classification.
