Preparing for the ArTour: The Grass Trays of Barbara Zaveruha

Barbara writes:

I’ve been out collecting grasses to print on plates and trays. The colors right now are spectacular. The Indian grass is golden with little yellow flecks of flowers in the seed head. The Big Bluestem is red and indigo and green. The seed heads are red to indigo, really intense when the grass is wet. The stem is usually red and green. One piece that I found was completely red–the whole stem and the blades–which I have never seen before. You can see it in the middle of the grasses in the picture.
