Flower Art Pack

$78.00

The Flower Pack is about looking at all the parts to make sense of a whole by viewing from different perspectives to gain a greater understanding. Lucy Smith, a Kew Garden botanical illustrator, stated that dissecting flowers captured the essence in an informed manner. Working with Lucy inspired me to put this pack together. It helped me to see the exciting shapes within the outer form of the flower and I realised that it was so easy to overlook the true essence of an object. The Flower Pack will enable you to stain paper, to observe flower parts and to reconstruct them into new non-realistic arrangements enhanced with patterns. With so much content provided the instruction cards direct you to six short videos for the steps which total 25 minutes duration. All the materials and resources are supplied for endless hours of fun.

Design idea location: Kew Gardens, London Botanical Drawing course at Kew Gardens with Australian botanical illustrator Lucy Smith.

Location of creation: Port Chalmers, New Zealand.

Art Supplies included. Scroll to the bottom of the page to view materials list.

Me: This pack is designed for the person who wants to take some well-deserved time out for themselves.

Me & You: This pack is designed for two people. You and a friend, or family member. Time to share and be creative together.

Everyone Pack: It’s designed for four people. A work team or party time! Pop that champagne, or brew that cuppa. Custom built larger packs available upon request.
