Introduces an original take on floral design that teaches us to see
the world anew Based on Lindsey Taylor’s popular Wall Street
Journal column ‘Flower School,’ on its surface this book
demonstrates how Taylor creates stunning but achievable floral
arrangements inspired by works of art. Riffing on works by a
diversity of artists across mediums, periods, and styles, including
Alice Neel, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Julie Mehretu, Sheila Hicks,
Willem de Kooning, Georgia O’Keeffe, Frank Stella, Salman Toor,
Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and Kerry James Marshall, among others,
Taylor inspires readers to interpret the palettes, compositions,
brushstrokes, and mood of the art in flowers, and shares
florists’ trade secrets for building beautiful arrangements.
Through this meditative practice of looking intently at art and
nature, readers learn, in the words of David Hockney, ‘to really
look,’ and to really see the world.
