Gorgeously Hairy Verbascum, commonly known as mullein, it is generally associated with the symbolism of courage, protection, and strength due to its sturdy and towering appearance. • I just wanted to know how these very hariy leaves would print… they were so beautiful to work with and very different to other leaves when printed. • According to Therapeutic Guide to Herbal Medicines by Mark Blumenthal, the leaves of Verbascum are approved for use in alleviating respiratory conditions. They are known to contain compounds such as mucilage, saponins, and glycosides that contribute to their medicinal properties. • Also, A Modern Herbal by Maud Grieve provides detailed information about the historical use of Verbascum leaves in traditional medicine, emphasizing their role in treating various respiratory ailments and as a potential remedy for earaches and other inflammatory conditions. • If you would like to try this at home, there is a little step by step booklet on my website and list of materials links in bio @impressionsofnatureprints it’s great for all ages. • Many of my monoprints are for sale, we are popping them on to the website day by day but if you see something you like don’t hesitate to contact us. • . • . • . • . • . • . • . • #Verbascum #mullien #leafprint #printingwithleaves #hairyleaves #medicinalherbs #botanicalprint #botanicalmonoprinting #Monoprinting #HandPrinted #PrintmakingProcess #PrintmakingTechniques #naturejournal #natureprint #ukprintmakers #monoprint #contemporarybotanicalart #oneofforiginal #contemporaryprintmaking #printmakingtoday #contemporarycraft #printmaking
