Series consists of 116 multimedia collages. In a 2023 article published in Canadian Art, her collages were noted for their “intricate mosaic-like appearance, their depictions of animal-like creatures in Canadian landscapes, and their focus on the human impact and encroachment upon the natural world”. The works use a combination of factory-made traditional and origami paper, handmade paper, photographs (primarily black-and-white), dried botanicals, fabric, PVA Glue, modge podge, and acrylic paint.
The series groups collages into one file each for three published books: Mushrooms for Mae (2016, Annick Press), Beeker and Bock Go To the Meadow (2018, Annick Press), and What Plants? (2020, Annick Press).

The series also includes stand-alone works that did not form a part of the three published children’s books. These stand-alone works of art differ in style significantly than those included in her books, with more serious themes and images, more intricate designs, and darker, more muted colour palettes dominating. The series also includes reproductions (photographs) of collages that were either sold or gifted to someone.
