PRIZED Possession Photograph by ERIN KUNKEL “Having grown up on an orchard, I’ve always been enamored with fruit trees. When I moved from New York to the Bay Area in 2011, I kept imagining the California citrus trees printed on fabric, specifically as the upholstery on an antique settee that I had purchased on Craigslist and brought cross country. After a year, I finally found the perfect tree in Sacramento—big and dense, with lots of oranges—and used a photo of it to make this fabric. With its new upholstery, I love the settee even more now.”
ERIN GLEESON is a photographer and illustrator who resides in a cabin in the woods, just south of San Francisco. She is the author of the blog The Forest Feast (theforestfeast.com) and the 2014 cookbook of the same name.
