Meet Andrea of Wild Impressions — a botanical artist and ecologist who creates delicate artwork using real pressed flowers and plant materials. Alongside her exhibitions and community projects, Andrea runs calm, hands-on workshops that encourage you to slow down, notice the details in nature, and make something truly special with botanicals.
In this relaxed, guided session, you’ll create a vibrant botanical artwork inspired by spring pollinators such as bees and butterflies. Using carefully prepared pressed petals and plant fragments, Andrea will show you simple composition techniques and how to build up a layered picture while working confidently with natural materials.
You’ll choose from two templates (bee or butterfly) and be supported step-by-step, making the workshop ideal for beginners, while still enjoyable for more experienced makers who want a mindful, nature-led project.
