Threatened Flora Cards

Personal Project, 2023. Illustrated with watercolour and pencils. 

This card deck is full of illustrated native Australian flora, many of which are currently threatened. It was made to highlight the beauty and diversity at risk from increasing global extinction rates. The deck contains 13 species, each with an indicator of its current threat status (as of 2023): common, vulnerable, endangered, critically endangered and extinct.

These are based on The Australian Environment Protection and Biodiversity Act, which currently lists almost 1500 threatened or extinct flora.
