Our Story

 
 

FINE ART FLORISTRY since 2015

With a background in Creative Arts and traditional Floristry, Julia established Wild Gorse Studio in the Scottish Highlands in 2015 to explore something more organic and liberate her compositional skills as a floral art form. 

Inspired by the wild beauty of these surroundings, foraged and locally sourced botanicals became a vital element of her work, distilling a sense of timelessness and place into the aesthetic alchemy and natural forms that she creates.

Julia is a passionate educator and established the Highland Flower School on Belladrum Estate, holding space for future floral artists to grow in knowledge and artistry whilst cultivating an understanding of the raw and sensuality of nature.

The studio space at Belladrum has since expanded into the surrounding farm steadings and we have opened a retail space and café.
