CASTING FLOWERS (HB)

From small plaster tiles featuring a single flower portrait to large panels that suggest an entire garden full of blooms, botanical castings reflect every gardener and artist's desire to capture the ephemeral in nature. This book offers guidance on the tools and equipment, step-by-step instructions and stunning photography of the process from start to finish. Readers will learn what plants work best in botanical casts, and which to avoid, as well as tips on creating unique pieces of artwork as mementos of a season or records of special occasions.
