Miniature Cattleya Orchid Paper Flower Making Workshop with Jeannie Lindquist
The Friends of the Conservatory are pleased to welcome master crafter and botanical artist Jeannie Lindquist to Volunteer Park Conservatory.
Jeannie will present an exclusive one-time-only workshop where students will create a beautiful miniature Cattleya Orchid out of paper.
Jeannie and her miniature flower kits are true-to-life representations of actual botanical specimens; painstakingly studied, deconstructed, digitally reassembled and laser cut out of paper.
This workshop will showcase the beautiful orchids in miniature that are grown full-size in the Conservatory. These orchids were studied in great detail in order to make the miniature accurately.
- Students will learn how to assemble each orchid stem using special tips and then "plant" them in the pot.
- All orchid pieces are laser cut.
-No scissors are needed for this. Orchid column and lip petal are pre-assembled. Leaves, stem pieces and roots are hand colored by Jeannie.
Included in workshop fee:
- Orchid pot "filled" with bark
- All supplies for making orchid
- Plastic display case for transporting the finished orchid
- Tools if you do not have the special ones needed.
Students Bring:
- Embossing tools- fine 1 cm and medium 2 cm
- Fine pointed tweezers
- Small round #0 or smaller paint brush
- Magnifying Glass on a stand so you work under it with both hands
- Lunch
The miniature design is exclusive to this workshop at Volunteer Park Conservatory and is offered at a special discount from Jeannie's typical workshop fee in Jeannie's further support of the Conservatory at Volunteer Park, Seattle, WA.
