Create original artworks that engage the senses by exploring the shapes, colors, and forms of plants.

Hands-on collage, combining a variety of materials, opens up endless creative opportunities. You can also enhance your pieces by incorporating elements from nature. Brazilian visual artist Manuela Eichner channels her passion for plants into collages featured in prints, murals, and exhibitions across Brazil and around the world, and she will guide you through this artistic process.

In this online class, you’ll learn how to craft expressive compositions using plant-inspired motifs. Manuela will guide you step by step to develop your own botanical collage intuitively, teaching how to add texture, light, and movement. Bring your creative vision to life with your own hands while connecting with the natural world.
