Pressed Flower Art – Take 1

cherbie.wordpress.com

I’m in awe of people who create pressed flower art. I’ve tried to press flowers, and have discovered that just doing THAT is an art. I’m not sure how they keep the colors vibrant and keep them from looking completely smashed. THEN there’s the whole thing of patiently creating because works of art from the preserved flowers….

I think these are so creative. I can’t imagine having a pile of ferns brought in from the yard sitting in front of you, then having the vision to patiently create these, gluing each one in place until the picture comes alive. How amazing this lady is!  My thanks to Kate Woodberry, of trendingly.com for sharing Helen’s work with us.

I didn’t realize ferns came in so many different colors and textures. Isn’t her work amazing?
