Melissa G asked:

Hi,
i need to do a sureal painting but i have got to put on fresh flowers but i want to preserve them as i want them to keep fresh and not die. I am not sure if to try coating them in PVA or something . So if anyone has any ideas of what i can coat them in it will help me loads even just ideas for me to experiment with.

Thank You
will silica still help preserve the flowers natural colours or will it fade them?
