Connecting to Nature through Art

Richard has been a tattooer for 25 years with a shop in Asheville for 8.  During his career, he has mostly enjoyed tattooing skulls & demons, but since I've known him, his work has gotten a little more wild.  He now tattoos a lot of bees & butterflies & has a program donating to conservation for every wildlife inspired tattoo. 

 Libba has been a local pioneer for conservation through art for decades.  She has produced numerous pieces and donated hundreds of hours to benefit pollinators and our community.  She designed the Bee Decals that are in business windows all over WNC.  Her Ghost Monarch work is also on signage at Black Mountain Monarch Waystations.  

 Danielle volunteers at the Monarch Waystations of Black Mountain and takes pictures of insects and wildflowers while there.  A few of the photos on the website are hers including this one of a Monarch on Joe Pye Weed.  She sells here photography and greeting cards on Etsy.
