The story so far

  • What Kay does

    Preserving the beauty of flowers through art,so they last longer than a week in a vase.

  • How it started

    After lockdown in 2020, my husband and I moved from the city to a lifestyle block near Waimauku, north of Auckland to live a more sustainable life.

     

    I set about transforming a paddock on the property from mud into a wildflower patch primarily to add colour and attract pollinators.

     

    Wanting to keep the beautiful bright blooms longer than a week in a vase I started experimenting with pressing and drying the flowers.

     

  • The journey

    Using the flowers and other botanicals from my garden or found locally, I created my art in a renovated studio in the barn on the property.

    In September 2025 we sold the Lifestyle Block and moved from 1.8Hectares to 600Sqm at One Tree Point in Northland.

    I still grow most of the flowers that I need and top those up with flowers sourced from local growers.

    Starting with one small flower press to make frames for family and friends there are now numerous presses ensuring a constant supply of flowers to create the artwork.

     

    Moving to the lifestyle block rekindled an energy and passion for flowers and a creative path that has been lying dormant for many years and I will continue to d so now that we have moved.

     

    I hope you enjoy the art works.
