Kathryn is a qualified florist who has nurtured a passion for floristry and gardening for over 20 years. Her work in floristry first led her to want to  produce her unique plaster plaques, which allow her to capture a lasting impression of the transient beauty, fragility and exquisite detail of flowers and natural material. The plaques are created by taking impressions of flowers and other materials in clay. Many of flowers are grown in her own cutting garden. 

Kathryn says "developing the cutting garden from a field on the farm has been a rewarding project, growing the flowers from seed and seeing them flourish and become beautiful things. Creating a plaque is a way to preserve the flowers and have an everlasting tactile impression of their beauty and form which can be enjoyed and shared with others."

The plaques that Kathryn creates beautifully preserve the texture, shape and beauty of the flowers grown in the gardens. She says: "The plaques are like flower fossils! They are a unique way to cherish natural beauty, and original impressions of beautiful things."
