Learn to create luminous botanical prints using pressed leaves, flowers, layered paints, and textures. Explore positive and negative shapes, layering techniques, and mark-making, then transform your prints into greeting cards or mixed media art. Fun, freeing, and a little addictive—come ready to play!
