The Overlooked New York Urban Gardener Series of Portraits done by Zina Saunders are whimsical watercolorish illustrations that capture the spirit of her subjects - the artist also included an interview of each. The sheer number of these portraits shows a passion and devotion to the people of New York City that is inspirational.
The interface is a bit puzzling when you first hit the page but just click on the pictures at the top for each gardener's interview and the portrait.
Ms. Saunders art is fluid, fresh and not overworked, capturing the essence of each person, somewhere between a sidewalk caricature and sacred iconography - these folks are elevated playfully from street to our hearts.
