\t\t\t\t\tOverview:<\/p>\n

Roundabouts Books to host Northwest artist and author Molly Hashimoto as she discusses her new book which explores the beauty of wildflowers.<\/p>\n

Roundabout Books is excited to host Northwest artist and author Molly Hashimoto to discuss her new book, \u201cWildflowers of the West: An Artist\u2019s Guide\u201d, exploring the ephemeral beauty of wildflowers. The event takes place at Roundabout Books on Oct. 19 at 4:00 pm.<\/p>\n

Bestselling artist Molly Hashimoto brings her unique blend of vibrant illustration, engaging natural history, and intimate personal reflection to the Western landscape. Organized by habitat, \u201cWildflowers of the West\u201d showcases flora from wetlands, shorelines, and prairies to deserts, forests, and alpine meadows. Accompanying each piece with natural history and stories of her own outings to find flowers, Hashimoto captures individual species through different media, from quick sketches with pen and ink to detailed watercolors and carefully planned block prints.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Find exquisite golden columbines emerging from talus slopes, vast meadows of sky-blue lupine, scarlet displays of ocotillo in the southwestern deserts, and sunny blooms of glacier lilies as they herald the approach of spring. Weaving in the history of wildflowers in art along with sidebars offering practical techniques for artists, \u201cWildflowers of the West\u201d is an inspiration for anyone who would like to try their hand at capturing the delicate beauty of wildflowers they encounter or simply an armchair album for those who appreciate the natural beauty of the American West.<\/p>\n

The author of four books including \u201cTrees of the West\u201d and \u201cBirds of the West\u201d, she lives in Seattle. Learn more at\u00a0mollyhashimoto.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
