Are you familiar with Molly Peacock's book The Paper Garden? Oh, my goodness, it details the (mostly later) life of artist Mary Delaney who, at age 72, created a new art form: mixed media collage. She created 985 botanically correct cut-paper flowers, which are now housed in the British Museum. Please check out her work...it is exquisite!

Wow. I'm glad Carol is looking this up--I am SO intrigued! She created mixed media collage? That is HUGE!
I will. My library has the ebook available... I just checked it out and put it on my Kindle to read. Thank you!
I just dove into your "Lost Ladies of Garden Writing" and just wanted to say thank you. I love this topic!
You're welcome. I enjoy doing it!
