Herbaceous Art

Maggie Lake wanders the Vermont woods collecting leaves, plant stems, and petals. At home in Putney, she crafts her “flower portraits,” which are framed in cherry or bird’s-eye maple by her husband, Tracy. Giclee prints are also available. Pictured here is Vermont Pond Flora (giclee, 8-1/2 x 31 inches, $195). 802-387-2474; vermontbotanical.com
