Blue

Pressed hydrangea petals - faded - have a vintage feel. I picked them at Trengwainton Gardens because they were a pretty old fashioned blue with small pink spots and rings. The colours have faded now but they are still beautiful















"Hiding In The Weeds" by Rachel Cockerill inspired the colours in the piece of silk below

















Silk folded and creased, secured with bands then injected with silk paints using a syringe
