Fantastic Flowers Art Box

Lots of Lovely Art

Artists have drawn (and been drawn to) flowers for centuries. In this art box we are inspired by them all to create a variety of our very own floral masterpieces: From naive flower still lives to abstract floral multi-media paintings; from sun-prints to vases filled with egg-cup bouquets; from petal collages to beautiful painted paper flower crowns! Artists have used flowers to talk about joy and madness, and about beauty and sadness. For flowers have their own language: in art, as in life, roses signify love, and lilies, beauty. People give flowers as an expression of their emotions, to say things like “I love you” or “I’m sorry”… And the colours of flowers also mean different things: red often represents love; yellow, friendship; and blue, peace.

In this box we learn how to look at, paint, make and collage all sort of flowers, inspired by artists past and present.
