Create a beautiful paper butterfly in a box, with live, half-day virtual workshop.
WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT?
Everyone loves butterflies and we’ve all seen those displays in boxes and marvelled at the diversity and beauty of these ephemeral insects. But putting real butterflies on your wall is not to everyone’s taste, but suppose you could make them out of paper……... A taxidermy paper butterfly, that looks just like the real thing.
MEET YOUR ARTIST
This virtual, live class is run by Zack Mclaughlin, who will teach you how to metamorphosise paper and wire until it emerges as a delicate butterfly. Zack is a fantasy artist and sculptor, with a love of nature. He creates his work using wood, paper and clay.
