Botanical Block Printing: A Creative Step-by-Step Handbook to Make Art Inspired by Nature. Explore the realm of botanical block printing with this comprehensive yet accessible guide.

Embark on a journey of practical techniques and processes, and create breathtaking prints inspired by the beauty of nature, all hand-crafted by you. 

Linocut and woodcut printmaking have recently surged in popularity. People are finding joy in working with their hands again, and the techniques in this book can be carried out on the kitchen table at home. Richly illustrated, this practical guide covers preparation and equipment, followed by an introduction to processes and techniques. Step-by-step projects include block prints on both paper and fabric; there are interviews with printmakers who specialise in natural subjects; and you’ll even learn how to make your own botanical inks.

Bound with a special exposed-spine binding allows the book to lay (and stay) open without any bending whilst it’s being used as an instructional manual. The inside flap extends outwards to reveal an accurate ruler; handy to have nearby for when measurements are needed. The flap can then be folded inwards again, to bookmark a page and come back to a project later on. Finished with a burnt-orange thread running through the spine for an organic touch, this book is a real hands-on experience that's both durable and artistically crafted.

Above all, this is a beautiful and visually inspiring book unlike any other on the market.
