Learn from your instructor

Daria Volokhova

Hi! I'm Daria, the founder and creative director of the HammerFlower project. I'm on a mission to share the technique of transferring nature's colors to paper through hammering. In this course, I'm sharing what I've learned through years of experimenting with botanical prints.

Before you begin

Questions, answered.

Everything you need to know about materials, access, and getting a clear first print.

Is this course suitable for complete beginners?

Yes. You do not need drawing, painting, or printmaking experience. The lessons begin with materials and your first flower, then build toward layered compositions and finished projects.

What materials do I need?

You will need a regular flat-head hammer, watercolor paper, fresh flowers or leaves, a protective cover, a sturdy work surface, a towel, and a heavy book for drying. The course is digital; physical materials are not included.

How do I receive access after purchase?

After checkout, each learner receives an invitation by email. For a single seat without a recipient email, we use the email entered at checkout. Open the invitation to begin learning.

Can I learn on my phone or tablet?

Yes. The course works on phone, tablet, and desktop, and your progress is saved so you can continue where you left off.

How long do I keep access?

Your one-time purchase includes lifetime access to the course, so you can return for a refresher whenever flowers come back into season.

What if my first prints look muddy or unclear?

That is exactly what the course helps you troubleshoot. You will learn how plant choice, paper, placement, pressure, and layering affect the clarity of each print.
