Creating Joy: Liz Raymond Wild Beauty in Resin Liz Raymond creates mixed media artwork under the brand Wildflower & Flora. She specializes in non-toxic resin pieces that preserve real Ohio wildflowers, transforming them into wearable art and wall displays. Her work includes earrings, necklaces, hairclips, bolo ties, and badge reels. Art of Foraging and Preservation Liz forages flowers from gardens, roadsides, ditches, and common areas throughout Ohio. She presses the flowers herself using handmade flower presses with watercolor paper and cardboard. The watercolor paper helps absorb moisture better than traditional methods and reduces mold risk. Each resin piece requires a week to complete. The flowers must be layered carefully to prevent them from sinking or floating before the resin sets. Every arrangement is unique, creating what she calls “Flower Joy” for her customers. Connection, Passion, and Creativity Liz discovered her artistic passion later in life but now feels she has found her calling in creating art. She aims to provide viewers with a unique experience through her flower-based artwork, connecting people through the natural beauty of preserved wildflowers.
