Endangered Flora

"Endangered Flora” is a poignant series by Allison Harn that shines a spotlight on the threatened and endangered plant species native to North Carolina. Through a collection of watercolor and gouache paintings on cold pressed watercolor paper, Harn captures the delicate beauty of these often-overlooked flora.

The series comprises five pieces in varying sizes, each meticulously rendered to showcase the unique characteristics and fragile nature of these plants. "Endangered Flora” serves as both a visual celebration and a call to action, drawing attention to the beautiful yet imperiled plant life that is rapidly disappearing from our landscapes.

Harn’s work aims to foster a deeper appreciation for these rare plants, highlighting their importance and the urgent need for conservation efforts. By bringing these endangered species into focus, "Endangered Flora” encourages viewers to reflect on the broader impact of environmental change and the significance of preserving our natural heritage.
