Ignacio Canales Aracil
Pressed flowers. Just flowers. Spanish artist Ignacio Canales Aracil collects flowers from the private gardens of the most renowned landscape designers in Europe and then presses them into large molds. He gets no help from adhesives… just a month long drying process and the loving, miraculous touch of mother nature. When they’re complete he adds a spray of light varnish to protect them from moisture. So amazing… delicate and stunningly beautiful.

These make me feel like I can die happy. Petite mort. Stunningly beautiful! Love
These are lovely!
I’m wondering, though, if it would be possible to give us the sizes of the artworks that you post for each artist? Thanks!
