This year's catalog cover was designed by artist Kate Burgau. Based in Bath, Maine, she spends as much time as possible outdoors, immersed in the natural world, which inspires her work. Specializing in ink and paint, her illustrations examine themes of growth and decay, symbiotic relationships, and the importance of pollinators. She loves to explore the smallest details in nature and how they relate to each other-and to us. You can view more of her work at https://www.kateburgau.com/.
