This delicate bowl takes some patience to make as it needs to be done over two to three days, but it is a great way to show off the colourful leaves you will find all around you in autumn!
Bien qu'elles soient mortes, jaunies, fanées, il en reste quelques unes qui se prêtent encore à quelques manipulations. Les feuilles de laurier par exemple, même en cette saison, sont suffisamment solides. Je vous en ai présenté assez souvent, de ces...
Artist Helen Ahpornsiri (previously) continues to explore the possibilities of pressed plantlife in her ongoing series of wildlife illustrations that depict insects, animals, and other creatures. The England-based artist has recently begun experimenting with gold leaf that she applies to ferns and then incorporates as accents into various pieces.

In spite of the cold wintery weather 27 members of the Chapter and 3 visitors attended the Saturday afternoon workshop on 13th July. The leader of the workshop was Chieko Yazaki, the head of the Shogetsudokoryu School in Melbourne. The theme she chose was arrangements using Aspidistra leaves. These leaves are the traditional material used in classical Seika arrangements which are the signature style of the Shogetsudokoryu School. Chieko demonstrated the basic Seika style with five leaves and explained the names of each leaf and its symbolic significance. In the previously prepared Seika with seven leaves, shown above, Cheiko had added a small number of burnt orange chrysanthemums. When flowers are added they must be very subtle as the leaves are more important. She also pointed out that a dying leaf in this Seika is used to express the season and although leaves in this case were not perfect the arrangement was still graceful. Chieko then went on to demonstrate a number of techniques to manipulate the leaves for use in modern ikebana styles. In this case she showed how to partially shred leaves to create elegant lines. Here is her completed arrangement Her next demonstration showed how to create wavy lines in the leaves... ...using wire attached with tape on the back of the leaves. This example and the next one are using this technique. In this example the amber coloured leaves have been allowed to dry naturally over a couple of months. Another technique demonstrated was the use of scissors to change the shape of the leaves as shown in the example above. The following photos are of ikebana created on the day of the workshop. As usual, in their exploration of this material, the members created a great variety of ikebana. The editor regrets that the names of the individual ikebanists were not recorded.

Merging traditional craft techniques and the natural world’s abundant materials, Hillary Waters Fayle (previously) meticulously stitches brightly hued florals into found camellia leaves and other foliage. From simple lines and ribbing to fully rendered botanics, the thread-based embellishments interrupt the fragile matter. The resulting sculptures evidence nature’s durability while juxtaposing the organic material with the fabricated additions. In the interview below, Waters Fayle describes how she gathers leaves and seed pods from areas around her home in Richmond, Virginia, and notes that her practice is rooted in sustainability. More

Using the properties of the fish and leaves shown, students can practice classifying these Virginia organisms with interactive dichotomous key Google Slides. Students will move the pictures of the fish and the leaves into the key to indicate the species shown. Fish and leaf pictures can be manipulated by position and size. The dichotomous key in the background of the slide cannot be changed or manipulated by students. This slide deck includes: - a dichotomous key to identify 6 types of fish - a dichotomous key to identify 6 types of trees - a helper slide if students need more information on how to look for "leaflets" - answer keys for each dichotomous key, delete these from your student version before you share
Leaf Stitching is part of an ongoing exploration of stitching with found items, exploring the potential of what I find in the landscape.
