Haines does amazing work, and she's a librarian to boot.  Above is her most recent work done using the moku hanga style of wood-block printing on handmade Japanese Nishinouchi paper.  Haines even uses hand-ground pigments!

Check out Haines' blog at Serendipity Artist (she gives a great play-by-play on Poppies and other works).  Definitely check out her esty shop at www.etsy.com/shop/serendipityartist
