Nettie Baskcomb Brown - Bas-Relief Botanical Art

Nettie works from her home studio in Pewsey to create beautiful, contemporary pieces of botanical art, for the home and garden, using a technique known as botanical bas-relief.

She uses fresh plants and flowers which are carefully pressed into clay and the 'negative' image when the flowers are removed is then translated into plaster or concrete. These tactile, sculptural casts - where each leaf, seed and flower leaves a permanent record of the plant - can be 'read' like Botanical Braille. 

Her portfolio includes wildflower meadows, pollinating gardens, wetland plants and more. Nettie's current artwork, in support of the RNIB, is a complete botanical alphabet with 'Embossed Braille' in every flower cast.

Making her art inclusive and accessible for the visually impaired. Nettie offers commissions of your garden, memorial flower casts, wedding flowers. She also runs private workshops in plaster casting for up to 3 persons.
