Completed Books
I have completed the text and paintings for the first eight books in the series!
Works in progress!
These have completed text. I am working on painting images and as soon as I’m done, these will be available.
About the Art
The art in the Botany for Everyone series is all drawn and painted by Rachael Bush using vivid alcohol ink on Yupo. Each book takes about a hundred hours of sketching, painting, and scanning art before it’s complete.
About the Content
Each Botany for Everyone book takes countless hours to outline, write, edit, and format. I have a team of people who have helped me along the way. A big thank you goes to Dr. Sue Harley, who gave up weeks of her life to help me content edit these books. Sarah Sandoval, Jason Baker, Peter Fajardo, Terra Luft, Megan Condie, Thäis Rodriguez, and Rebecca Ryan were crucial every step of the way. I’m grateful to each and every one of them! ❤
What versions of the books are available?
Publishing the Botany for Everyone series has been an exercise in patience. And anyone who knows me knows I’m not a patient person. I brainstormed this project in February 2020 and have been working on them ever since!
