The Gibson House Bed & Breakfast in Haverhill, New Hampshire proudly presents a five-day botanical art workshop with Mindy Lighthipe. Participants have the option of taking a 2 1/2-day drawing class, a two-day watercolor class or both while relaxing at The Gibson House.

Immerse yourself in the quiet of country living and get in some serious drawing and painting!

Practice turning geometric shapes into natural forms and receive step-by-step instruction that will result in a finished drawing of a botanical specimen. Cost: $250
