Join Indigo Studio artist Lisa Howard and learn how to craft sculptural paper flowers.
In this workshop you will learn the paper folding, cutting and shaping techniques that form the basis of a number of petal types. These petals will then be attached in sequence to reveal colourful sculptural spring flowers. Using nature as your guide you can either opt for realism or let your imagination run wild. Your flowers can be embellished with leaves and arranged with moss in a terracotta pot which you can take home.
This workshop is perfect to share with friends and family. All materials are provided and no previous experience is necessary.
About the host…
Lisa Howard originally studied sculpture and photography, followed by a master’s degree in art history at University College London.
Lisa has had a 20 year career in the cultural and creative industries supporting the professional development of many talented people and spearheading programmes, such as the Big Draw aimed at broadening access to the arts and unlocking creativity. Lisa’s artistic practice is diverse but rooted in the idea of capturing natural forms through natural processes.
This includes sun printing methods such as cyanotype and lumen prints, monoprinting directly from the subject and tracing cast shadows in ink. Elements of these techniques are beyond the artist’s control and are therefore both creatively challenging and freeing, ensuring each artwork is unique and captures the process of making in the final form.
Lisa founded Indigo Studio in order to dedicate more time to developing her own artistic work but also as a means of sharing her extensive knowledge of creative techniques through a varied range of botanically inspired seasonal workshops that are accessible to all skill levels
