Incredible works of art made with only plants

A mother-daughter art duo in Chicago have made a name for themselves with their stunning prints made from nothing but plants – not even glue or tape to stick it onto the canvas!

Vicki and Brooke Rawlins from the Sister Golden boutique use only what they can forage from the environment around them and are returned to nature once they have been arranged and photographed. “Everything you see in these portraits came directly from the earth,” they explain. “It's [our] way of paying respect to Mother Nature in a sustainable way.”

Take a look at some of their stunning creations in the gallery above. I think you’ll agree, they certainly look more impressive than just flowers and dirt!
