Art with Plants: Pressing, Placing, and Pounding

Explore three different methods historically used to preserve and capture the color and structure of plants!

Try out Tataki-zomé (flower pounding) to create an abstract painting. Learn Oshibana (pressed flower collage) to construct a landscape from a memory or photograph. Discover the beauty of cyanotypes to print your favorite plants. Nurture your creativity by mixing and matching different tools and techniques to create your own unique piece of art.

Take a cue from nature’s mix of chaos and harmony—try something new in art and let yourself break the rules!
