PULLING THE WEEDs 

Summer 2018.  Southampton, NY. I worked (gardened) for my brother's established landscaping and horticulture company Christopher DeCristofaro Horticulture.  

In combination with my known gardening skills and familiarity with my hometown, I created a new series of drawings and paintings in Southampton and Montauk, New York - Hostas and Hinoki.
