Field of Grass (top left) and
Field of Grass, Lavender (bottom
right), are two pieces in a series of grass paintings by Mary D. Ott, SM’67,
PhD’71, on exhibit at Maryland's Metropolitan Center for the Visual

Bouquet of Grasses XVI
(top right) and
Bouquet of Grasses XIII (bottom left) were created
by running bits of nature and ink through an etching press. PHOTO CREDIT:
