WWPFG 2010 Conference Instructor Biography

Liwen Chen


The beauty of the pressed flower overwhelmed me since the very first encounter with it. I plunged right into the world of pressed flowers and left behind years work on the art of flower arrangement.

Twenty years have gone by since. Watching swinging grasses in the wind, seeing the world through a grain of sand and heaven in wild flowers, I have rested my heart and soul in the world of pressed flower.
