About wisdom from the wood greeting cards

Evelyn has been an artist her whole life. She has created a wide variety of work, including paintings, botanical illustration, cartoons, logos, and children’s book art. She has a published book that she co-wrote and illustrated, “Identifying and Harvesting Edible and Medicinal Plants in Wild (and Not So Wild Places), Harper Collins. At the time she was living in NYC and leading wild plant foraging walks, as well as teaching classes on using wild plants for food and medicine. An herbalist and wild food cook, she loves to make a wide variety of recipes from flowers, leaves, roots, fruits, and mushrooms. Throughout her journey she has been compelled to explore and spend time in the natural world. The Wisdom from the Wood Greeting cards began when she began working on live edged pine creating art based on the design in the wood. Using a wood burner and burning or carving into the wood, she would let the images form and tell a story. Then once printing the images, the quote that really got to the depth of the image would emerge as well. These whimsical images utilize the natural world as well as fantasy to serve as blueprints towards healing. The art is enhanced by quotes that go straight to the heart. Wisdom from the Wood Greeting Cards have found a unique niche within a wide variety of retail stores. They boast unique live edge wood designs, creatively earth based spiritual insight and quotes that take a greeting card to a deeper understanding of being human. Read their story
