Title: Plant Art Post by: Snare on 6 November 2021, 22:07:22 So like, my whole schtick of being the plant guy has kind of persisted over the past 20 years. Well beside just storying vasts amount of plant knowledge in my brain, I've begun to create what some might describe as "art" with bits and pieces of still living/dead plant matter, in fact that's a major part of my job.
Bouquets The bread and butter of the plant-crafts. https://i.imgur.com/1slV3XV.jpg https://i.imgur.com/K3dF493.jpg https://i.imgur.com/kI4Qnxl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/9pxobfs.jpg https://i.imgur.com/GGyZEC0.jpg https://i.imgur.com/9uU0JFq.jpg https://i.imgur.com/9bCbpJE.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ggl0MPT.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Cq6IzoD.jpg Dried Stuff this type of stuff is really popular with folks these days. I blame horrible sites like pinterest. Wanna dry your own flowers? just put them like. upside down. https://i.imgur.com/meg867W.jpg https://i.imgur.com/bjNUeBa.jpg https://i.imgur.com/OjP2KA2.jpg These are roses I made using these pearlescent seed capsules from a plant called Lunaria. I haven't seen anything like them on the internet yet, so I guess these are my original characters. https://i.imgur.com/HgJhaiy.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ofP9Yl1.jpg https://i.imgur.com/In54PK5.jpg Some wreaths I made. https://i.imgur.com/TB1kOd8.jpg Preserved roses make lovely gifts for moms and stuff. https://i.imgur.com/GpzVd8m.jpg https://i.imgur.com/QoyjW8q.jpg https://i.imgur.com/q1zhm2Q.jpg https://i.imgur.com/5xSrikC.jpg Title: Re: Plant Art Post by: Snare on 6 November 2021, 22:10:01 oh wow all these pictures are huge. Oh damn. Oh crap.

Title: Re: Plant Art Post by: Johncarllos on 7 November 2021, 14:12:15 You've... massacred you own people! For the sake of ART.
Worth it. My aunt runs a flower shop so I see a lot of this stuff first hand, and I just got married last month so I've been way too acutely associated with floral arrangements. I like your arrangement better than my aunt's, and I'd have totally gone for your arrangements at our wedding.

Huhuhuhuhuh who would keep up a weird persona on a board that they invented at 13? Couldn't be me... Really though, these are spectacular! Have you done any events or anything? As John said, you could definitely do weddings, etc. Title: Re: Plant Art Post by: TheRedPriest on 22 November 2021, 20:55:05 My schtick of being a crabby old fuddy duddy wasn't a schtick and is only more relevant now after 20 years!
