Hoping that you’ll make more videos. Loved the simplicity and beauty, and what a great studio you have. You are very talented.

Thank you very much, you're so kind! I'll probably do more videos, but in the meantime if you're interested in my art please feel free to check out my Instagram ARTFFLORA.

@@bethpugh1718 thank i really like ur video i was looking for it all over KZbin

[@wendyjones249]

Are there frames specifically made for this? If so.. what are they called and where can I get them? Thank you

[@bethpugh1718]

@@wendyjones249 Hi Wendy, Sorry for the late reply! I don't know of any frames specifically made for this. I think most botanical plaster relief artists may improvise with picture frames, embroidery hoops, springform cake pans etc. If you know someone who's handy with a chop saw or mitre saw you get them to make you a customised frame.

Thank you!

Please beth, what is that substance in the cup, could that be glue and calcium

[@bethpugh1718]

Hi, I'm not sure which cup you mean, but the first one (the white one) is just plaster and the second one (purple) is acrylic paint. Thanks for your interest!

Woww😍 Which type of clay is this??

[@bethpugh1718]

It's just a standard hand building clay Plainsman M340.

[@gemf1704]

Oh how long have you been making? Interesting process !

[@bethpugh1718]

A couple of years now.

[@feminataniel888]

Your cast out art, can it be replaced with rubbee like compound

[@bethpugh1718]

Yes, I'm sure it can!

What kind of press do you use?

[@bethpugh1718]

Sorry for the late reply! It's a Shimpo slab roller; you can get one from most pottery supply stores.
