After the busy summer and autumn, during which botanical printing and giving workshops takes a lot of time,
the month December and especially Advent is a silent time.
During this time, I love creating a special series around a theme in silence.
This year the theme was inspired by my poetry album or the "Album Amicorum" (friendship book),
like it was called in Latin during the middle ages.
I decided to make "Botanical Poetry Plates".
From the botanical prints (colors in the works are solely from plants,
excluding the thread) I cut images inspired by old, medieval illustrations.
Next, I added embroidery or crocheting. The size of the works varies: 30 x 35, 30 x 40 or 25 x 50 cm.
The entire series was created during Advent and is available until January 6, 2023 for a special price.
Within the Netherlands, the price is €150 including shipping (registered mail with insurance). Within Europe:
€152.50 including shipping (with tracking, no insurance), €158.50 including shipping (registered mail, insured value upto €100),
€162.50 including shipping (registered mail, insured value upto €500). For the price including international shipping outside Europe, please contact me.
