Yesterday I posted another lovely photo that I had stumbled upon with no photo credit. Within two hours (wow), fellow blogger teaanddauguries replied with a link to this amazing photo. The artist is Nicole Dextras and the image is titled "Yucca Prom Dress."

Nicole Dextras is a visual artist based in Vancouver, BC. Along with photography, book arts, and paper casting, she explores the ephemeral beauty of environmental art.

This series is from Nicole's Ephemeral Art, Weedrobes Series -- eco-wearables made from live plant materials such as leaves, flowers and branches.
Aren't they fabulous?
