Cape Town creative Catherine Green has documented a series of sketches via her Instagram account. Over the course of 30 days, Green drew images related to "ailments and their plant remedies," hence her depiction of leaves, stems, flower bouquets and of course, the human body.
In addition to being quite detailed, Green's illustrations also document helpful tips on the subject of naturopathic health. Addressed in the images are bruises, acne, eczema, joint pain, irregular heartbeats, depression, morning sickness and urinary tract infections.
Paired with each of the afflictions are natural treatments. At the fore of the designs are Saint John's Worst, cranberries, ginger, cloves, aloe, calendula and tea tree oil, each one meeting the maladies head on.
