Artistic Floral Design

Mrs. Bobbi Robinson

 

​

In this class, we will use fresh, dried paper, and even wood flowers to learn to create unique art. We will learn different methods to preserve fresh flowers, including using a flower press to press flowers and silica gel to dry flowers to keep their original characteristics. There will be a unit to learn how to use epoxy to create one-of-a-kind, timeless art pieces. We will hand-paint sola wood flowers to use in an arrangement. Additionally, we will learn how to incorporate flowers in the kitchen, using flowers not just for decorations, but with food.
