Artist Profile
Helen Ahpornsiri
Illustrator based in UK
Helen Ahpornsiri is an Illustrator based in East Sussex, UK. She creates her images using only real flowers, petals, stems and leaves. These are grown or foraged responsibly before being placed in a flower press. After 1-6 weeks of pressing, the flora and foliage is flat and ready to use – preserved in their natural colours, with no paints or dyes. Each piece is then cut and delicately positioned to form detailed illustrations; all brimming with the intricate twists and tangles of plant life.
