This weekend, four exhibitions will open at the Shirley Sherwood Gallery of Botanical Art at Kew Gardens. Kew artists and members of the Leicestershire Society of Botanical Illustration and the Hampton Court Palace Florilegium will exhibit botanical illustrations and paintings February 5 – June 1, 2011. Gallery visitors will be able to view contemporary botanical art, art from the 18th century, and illustrations created by Kew’s artists to aid in plant identification. For the first time, artwork will be available for sale. A portion of each sale will support the garden and the gallery.
