Each artwork is made using real flowers and botanicals that I press and preserve by hand over several months. Because of the time and fragility involved, I only create a limited number of pieces each year. No prints or reproductions are made.

Tohono Chul- Holiday Nights 2025

While visiting Tucson during the holiday break, I met Dede at a local holiday market and was immediately enchanted by her artwork. I had never seen anything like it. Although I didn’t purchase a piece at the time—since I was traveling and worried about damage on the flight—I later found her website and ordered a special piece for my home in Norway.

The entire experience was wonderful. She shipped it within just a few days, and it arrived beautifully packaged and in perfect condition. I absolutely love it. Dede’s work is truly special, and she is simply the best!

No two works can ever be the same — even if I wanted them to be.
The materials decide the outcome as much as I do.
Each artwork exists as a single finished object.
