Botanical Printmaking is a rewarding and fun art form. It allows you to capture the intricate and unique details of nature. I have made a step-by-step guide for anyone who wants to learn it! All materials needed are listed below with links to where I buy them. This doesn't have to be an expensive way of making art, and everything is easy to find online or in an art shop.
I hope you enjoy printing!
