Garden Variety Art by Holley Wlodarczyk
Invite a bit of nature inside with art and patterns inspired by the beauty and diversity of everyday nature—the vibrant interactivity of native plants and the wildlife they attract and support.
I’m an artist and surface pattern designer in Bloomington, Minnesota, and grow many of the native plant species featured in my artwork. A variety of birds, bees, butterflies and other wildlife that depend on them visit or live in my suburban yard through the seasons. Even more species of flora and fauna can be found in nearby natural areas, once part of the continuous natural tapestry of life in the Upper Midwest. Through my art and habitat gardening I try to enhance my own connection to this landscape, and share the joy and wonder I find in it.
