harvesting future funds

was thinking about my intention to pursue gardening instructional drawings as a source of inspiration, and how i feel like i need some additional element to accompany/modify it. for some time i was thinking about an increase in scale, translation into different materials such as embroidered onto artificial grass, or animating the drawings.

today i was considering changing the flowers in the drawings from actual plant species into imagined future mutations of plant species. hence the post title - harvesting future funds.

in the background to this is a consideration of including some sort of economic content into my work. perhaps financial data or economic data can provide the impetus for the pattern generation of these projected mutated botanicals.
