Illustrate the Elizabethan Gardens in North Carolina

February 23, 2011 by Tania Marien

Botanical Art Workshop with Linda Miller
The Elizabethan Gardens
www.elizabethangardens.org
April 28-30, 2011

Spend three enjoyable days drawing and painting the flora at The Elizabethan Garden on North Carolina’s Outer Banks. Learn the drawing skills, observation techniques, and watercolor techniques required to create a botanical painting. All levels of experience welcome!

On the first day of class, students will take a walk through the garden, receive an introduction to plant morphology, and select their plant specimen. Students will then “discover” their wonderful specimen, leaf by leaf – petal by petal, and create a line drawing that will serve as the foundation for their painting. Students will work at their own pace while the instructor visits with each student individually. Instructor Linda Miller will demonstrate each drawing and painting technique.

For more information, contact The Elizabethan Gardens at (252) 473-3234.
The Elizabethan Gardens are located at 1411 National Park Drive, Manteo, North Carolina.
