A lovely sunny Sunday at Oxcombe filled with botanical collage making for a unique and creative hen party art workshop designed and led by Artist Kate Westcott.

Using flowers, colour, texture, photographs, patterned and hand painted papers, everyone created completely unique framed artworks inspired by still life arrangements and their own imaginations.

The collages took so many beautiful directions, from delicate botanicals to birds and playful compositions, making each piece completely personal. Followed by a delicious afternoon tea in the Cow Shed! 🌷
