Helen Nodding’s Moss Graffiti Recipe
(enough to create several small pieces or 1 large piece of graffiti)
Ingredients
1 can of beer (others use yogurt or buttermilk)
1/2 teaspoon sugar
Several clumps garden moss
Supplies
You will also need a plastic container (with lid),
a blender and a paintbrush
Directions
To begin the recipe, first gather several clumps of moss (moss can usually be found in moist, shady places) and crumble them into a blender. Then add the beer and sugar and blend just long enough to create a smooth, creamy consistency. Now pour the mixture into a plastic container.
Find a suitable damp and shady wall on which you can apply your moss milkshake. Paint your chosen design onto the wall (either free-hand or using a stencil). If possible try to return to the area over the following weeks to ensure that the mixture is kept moist. Soon the bits of blended moss should begin to re-couperate into a whole rooted plant – maintaining your chosen design before eventually colonising the whole area.www.storiesfromspace.co.uk

太棒了,令人兴奋,除了苔藓浴毯。我不能那样踩在苔藓上。美妙的想法。

Inspiring!
I want to know how to do it. I’ve heard that mixing moss with yohurt and painting it on does the trick,
but I haven’t had much success.

Two questions:
Do you know that´s there are a whole city named Moss in Norway?
在你的莫斯艺术网站上,我听到了莫扎特的交响乐吗?

So creative and beautiful! Happy Earth Day!
‘We cannot segregate the human heart from the environment outside us and say that once one of these is reformed everything will be improved. Man is organic with the world. His inner life moulds the envrionment and is itself also deeply affected by it. The one acts upon the other and every abiding change in the life of man is the result of these mutual reactions…’ From the Writings of the Bahai RFaith

The best garden inspiration I’ve had in years. Thank you so much, and my garden thanks you. If I am successful with the plans you’ve planted in my head, photos to follow. Again, thanks, Sandy

I have seen a few of these…a few I want to make here on my 12 acres. I LOVE moss and the way it makes you feel. I love walking barefoot on mine as well!

我们的房子上有这么多苔藓,我想在我们开到尽头的那辆旧拖拉机驾驶室上做点什么。希望它在内部也能起作用。我很兴奋要开始了。

Great project!
I was wondering, would this work on canvas? I was hoping to add some green to my room and I think this project would be wonderful…
Lettme know!
Thanks
To Alyssasays
Really interesting question.
如果苔藓长在岩石上,我想它肯定会长在帆布上。我想问题是,石膏粉能防止画布背面的腐烂和发霉吗?苔藓需要到处浇水,所以我认为上面有浇灌过的苔藓的棉帆布只能维持几年。帆布与沉重的石膏,也许几年的时间,只是猜测,听起来很有趣,也许梅森石或木材会更持久....如果还有其他意见,请说出来。

A canvas with gesso may work depending on whether it is waterproof or not. Oils and acrylic paints are waterproof, but I do not know whether moss would grow on them. You may be able to find waterproof canvas, but once again, moss may not like the synthetic material. If I were you I would try it on very heavy cotton or linen canvas and when it gets old, find a nice shady place outdoors to put it and make a new one for inside.

So wonderful i love arts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love the ‘edging’ on your website with up close pictures of plants, many of them variegated! I am a horticulturalist, who LOVES variegated plants, and would like to know the english (and latin if you have it) names of these great plants. I don’t recognize some of them…
Thank You!

I was wondering why I don’t see any Irish Moss in any of the pictures. I have just finished planting 70 irish moss plugs between flagstones and in a sunny area and am hoping that it will grow to be a beautiful site. How come you don’t use it? Thanks.
Keirensays
我同意爱尔兰苔藓很漂亮…我可能没有添加图片,因为我还没有找到我喜欢的…(我只是在谷歌上搜索了爱尔兰苔藓,没有看到任何我想添加到页面的图片。)
I wish your Irish Moss well and if the area planted turns out spectacular…please do send a picture. In the future I will keep my eyes out…
Hope your plantings do really well.

This stuff is brilliant!! But have you ever seen the Japanese animation, Attack on Titan? The character here, even though they are moss art, look like the giants from that show!
