Metamorphosis: A Flora Forager Journal

Description

Limited-edition signed copies, exclusively for Victoria

This beautiful blank journal from Instagram sensation Flora Forager features images of butterflies, moths, caterpillars, chrysalises, and cocoons, all created using botanical materials. Flora Forager creates images out of flower petals, leaves, stones, twigs, and other natural materials that she finds in her garden and in urban wild areas in her neighborhood. This journal takes on the theme of metamorphosis in the scientific order Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), with beautiful, meticulously rendered representations of various species, all made out of floral materials. Includes 45 original pieces plus bonus back matter, including an index of the featured species with their scientific names, information about butterfly conservation, butterfly-friendly garden plants, and instructions on how to safely catch a butterfly.

Flora Forager is Bridget Beth Collins: nature lover, painter, writer, Instagrammer, and botanical artist. She forages the materials for her creations from foliage and flowers plucked from the sidewalks, meadows, and woods of her neighborhood.
