Garter snakes are essential for the garden’s ecosystem. Weaving through summer’s dense vegetation will cause the unaware to modestly squeal. Nature has a way of disregarding boundaries. Finding a coiled critter inside an oven mitt transforms a squeal into a primal scream. Running from the house was a natural reflex. Gardens bring unexpected challenges.
These were made in preparation for my show at Elephant Gallery in September, 2026.
