Dried flowers and cards at an oshibana (dried flower art) workshop in Osaka, JapanPressed flower decoupage on a miniature chair.
Oshibana (押し花) is the art of using pressed flowers and other botanical materials to create an entire picture from these natural elements.[1]
Such pressed flower art consists of drying flower petals and leaves in a flower press to flatten them, exclude light and press out moisture. These elements are then used to "paint" an artistic composition. The origin of this art form has been traced to 16th century Japan, but it is now practiced worldwide. The resulting artwork is referred to as an oshibana.[2]
