Are the Pressed Floral designs real flowers?
I press flowers from my garden then make my design with the flowers. Tom then prints limited edition Giclée prints for lasting color. Since 2000 when we started participating in art shows until now, there has been just a handful of people that knew they were prints, everyone else thought they were the real flower behind the glass. It's amazing how real they look. Visit The Pressed Floral Gallery
What size prints are available for the Pressed Floral designs?
Most designs are available as matted prints to fit 8 x 10, 11 x 14, or 16 x 20" frames. Some designs are available to fit 18 x 24, 20 x 24 or 24 x 30" frames. Some have sold out in a particular size. Please contact us with your purchasing questions. We'd love to help you with your décor needs or gift purchases.
Can I buy the original Pressed Floral designs?
Yes, but many flowers fade, so you would be purchasing an original with faded flowers. I personally like color but some people actually don't mind faded flowers, they want the "real thing". If you'd like to see some originals, please email us. We'd be happy to show you the originals. Some originals have already been sold.
Are the Watercolor designs sold as originals or prints?
We sell watercolor designs as original paintings. The designs are painted with archival watercolor paint and watercolor pencils on 140# cold press watercolor paper. Most of Vicki's watercolor animal designs are also available as limited edition Giclée prints. We print and sell 5 x 7 greeting cards of most watercolor designs. Visit The Watercolor Gallery.
