I want to recreate The Kiss by Gustav Klimt in pressed flowers for my partner’s birthday in a few months but I might be a bit ambitious because I don’t know the first thing about arranging my pressed flowers.

Does anyone have advice on how to use flowers vs negative space vs pens? And how big to do it so the image translates if I can arrange them properly? I’ve already been trying to collect flowers that match the image colours (lots of buttercups!!) but I’m a bit scared for when it comes to start constructing the piece.
