Ling Warlow Paper Botanist Paper Artist making plants and flowers using mixed media, primarily paper Merseyside, England
About Info News Sustainability Working from a studio in Hoylake, Wirral, I make paper flowers - intricate 3d rentitions of British wildflowers using materials coloured, where possible, using locally foraged dye plants. Primarily working with paper, wood and wire, I play with scale, creating both small, delicate violets and giant, towering foxgloves. I create art and installations, deliver workshops and community art projects and have designed a range of wildflower craft kits, available to purchase online or through stockists.
Focus: Creating paper botanicals, primarily wildflowers, working with natural colour to dye the paper Stockists: Come away with me to Flourishing - A Paper Flower Retreat 3rd March 2025
Ling Warlow and Meg Lowder of Floragami have teamed up to share their passion for the wonderful art of paper flower making!: “We are over the moon to announce Flourishing - A Paper Flower Retreat.

The Paper Wildflower on Substack 3rd March 2025
Follow the art and nature writing of artist Ling Warlow on Substack, where she regularly publishes her newsletter "The Paper Wildflower". Exploring what it means to connect to nature, Ling writes about a life less simple as she combines her creative practice, a passion for nature and the challenges of motherhood
My creative practice encompasses natural colour, driven by a desire to minimise my impact. Working largely with paper I also experiment with found materials, wool and wood. I am always amazed that a simple, wayside plant growing from a single seed may in fact require hundreds of handcut pieces and take weeks to recreate - I want to highlight the extraordinary beauty & detail of nature, ultimately encouraging a sense of connection with our natural environment.
