This one-of-a-kind collage is lovingly handcrafted using vintage flower imagery, handwritten letters, antique paper ephemera, and illustrations from an old gardening book.
 
Arranged in an abstract composition, it is delicately embellished with gold leaf and finished with a coat of encaustic wax. The result is a beautifully layered piece, where glimpses of the underlying paper peek through the translucent wax, creating an ethereal, almost dreamlike effect.
 
The artwork is mounted on a chalk-painted matboard, giving it a soft, elegant finish. The mount measures approximately 5.5 x 5.5 inches, while the collage itself is around 4 x 4 inches—perfectly sized for framing and displaying.
 
Each piece is entirely handmade in my studio in Devon, UK, using authentic vintage materials. As such, you can expect charming signs of age and wear that add to its unique character and timeless feel
