BETSY HUMES

I discovered that by capturing the key features of each flower, such as color, shape, texture and movement, the finished product, while not a replica of nature, could elicit the same reaction in the viewer: wonder.





ABDELNASSER IBRAHIM

My best talent is that I can always come up with a means to do whatever I set my mind to. 



JASMINE SING

To me, paper is a fantastic material; I can manipulate it into any form that I desire. Literally, there are no limits.




Maria Elena Gomez and Amity Libby


When we create flowers together, we transcend language barriers. Paper flowers bring us to a place where creativity is the common language. This is the strongest element of our collaboration.







New! Spring bouquet master class from Amity Libby


Paper Ferns and Paper Foxgloves

Create your own paper flower bouquet with teaching artist Amity Libby. Using clever techniques to maximize paper petals and reduce physical effort, she will show you an entirely new way of thinking about this beloved botanical art. Using ferns and foxgloves as the basis for the design and cutting, the roses and daffodils are a result of using the remaining materials.
