About

Learn how to channel the aesthetic of the Dutch Masters by creating and then photographing your own floral design.   

Floral artist, Leigh Chappell, and flower photographer, Janne Ford, are experts at capturing the essence of the Dutch Masters through their floral and photography collaborations.  

After a private view of the two Jan Van Huysum paintings, Janne and Leigh will talk you through the flowers and techniques used to create a Dutch Master-inspired floral arrangement and will guide you through creating your own design, using fresh seasonal British flowers.  

Once your floral design is complete, you will explore how the use of light and shadow is crucial to creating the aesthetic of a Dutch Master. Janne will talk you through the art of floral photography and show you how to achieve your own floral masterpiece, using one of the historic rooms at Strawberry Hill House as a backdrop.
