“Amy contacted me to collaborate with her on a local upcoming exhibition at Station South. I provided some flower and plant stems for her to use to print within her artwork. Our businesses closely align as we are both passionate about sustainability and the healing powers of nature. Amy’s artwork is beautiful and she is a very skilled craftsperson. She has been an absolute dream to work with and I'm really excited for the exhibition.”

This hands-on workshop will teach you how to create beautiful prints inspired by nature using traditional relief printmaking techniques. You will learn about the different types of plants local to your area and how to dry, press, and preserve your own flora.
Create a series of botanical mini prints, gift tags, and two A4 prints, onto recycled coloured card and cartridge paper. By the end of the workshop, you will have learnt the skills to continue this mindful creative practice at home.
