This workshop is suitable for all abilities and will enable you to create a beautiful keepsakes with ease.

The botanical art takes are made by pressing the plants, flowers & objects into clay. They are then removed & plaster is poured over to create the cast. The process picks up an incredible amount of details to create a beautiful raised impression.

In the workshop you will create two pieces of art - both the clay imprint and the plaster cast, in a shape and size of your choice. A lovely memory of summer flowers or perhaps more sentimental flowers - a dried wedding bouquet or a relatives favourite flower could be pressed to create a treasured keepsake. The botanical impressions and casts make ideal gifts for garden and nature lovers.

You will also delicately paint the plaster cast using acrylic paints with different techniques shown.
