The Ethnobotanical Art of Donna Torres















Donna Torres (wife of well known archaeologist and ethnobotanist Constantino Manuel Torres) is a fascinating artist very skillfull in depicting exotic and visionary plants. On her site you can find her paintings, drawings and also some book covers she made for authors like Richard Evans Schultes and Albert Hofmann(see for example the cover for the Japanese edition of their seminal Plants of the Gods) or Jonathan Ott. All psychoactive plants enthusiasts can't miss a visit to her gallery.
