flower constructions by Anne ten Donkelaar

This one’s for all of you mixed-media lovers out there. Behold the impressive flower constructions that I spotted over at Trendland today, made with pressed paper cutouts, dried plants and leaves by Netherlands-dwelling artist Anne ten Donkelaar. They’re a fusion of two of my favorite things: paper (relaunching in September) and nature.

Encased in a frame, these lovelies are held together in place by long stems and pinned down at varying heights against a blank white canvas.
