Flower Hunter by Lucy Hunter
- Description
A Year Lived Through Flowers
Wildly beautiful, wonderfully romantic and the sort of book you can happily disappear into.
Flower Hunter follows floral artist Lucy Hunter through a year in her cutting garden and studio in the mountains of North Wales — growing, gathering, arranging and finding inspiration in the changing seasons.
Known for her wonderfully loose, painterly floral style, Lucy creates arrangements that feel as though they've tumbled straight from a Dutch still-life painting. Garden roses mingle with trailing foliage, faded seed heads and imperfect stems, celebrating flowers at every stage of their life.
Part gardening book, part floral inspiration and part creative journal, there are ideas for drying flowers for autumn wreaths, experimenting with natural plant dyes, making botanical journals and, of course, creating gloriously abundant arrangements from the garden.
Beautifully written and filled with Lucy's exquisite photography, this is less a book to read once and put away and more one to leave on the coffee table, dip into with the seasons and return to whenever you need a little creative inspiration.
