Pressed botanical artwork - 
A fresh take on embracing the beauty surrounding us

Unique does not quite capture the distinct quality of Beth Murphy’s pressed flower collages that set them apart from traditional botanical work. Murphy designs with the texture, form, color and movement of each pressed flower, leaf, or grass to create a visual experience that is both familiar and new. Murphy strives to share the serenity she feels while creating her pressed botanical pieces with her audience. Viewing a Beth Murphy Botanical collage is not a passive experience – you are pulled into the peace, flow, mystery and magic.

​“As artists, we all work with  materials that have been around for ages. Some of these mediums have changed over the years. Others, due to their perfection, have remained the same. This is true about pressed botanical materials. There is no alteration that I have found which improves the quality of the raw, pressed, organic materials. As I mix hand-printed papers into some of my collages, I have discovered a way to accent colors that are more difficult to maintain over time in a way that doesn’t alter the pressed flower, leaf, or grass. This works for me in terms of composition and respecting the beauty of the natural medium.”
