Botanical Illustration
Saturday, November 17, 2012
Saturday, December 8, 2012
This introductory workshop will be offered twice this season. Workshops are open to all levels, all, no prior experience necessary. Students will explore the techniques of botanical illustration while learning about plant morphology. The latter not only increases the students’ appreciation of the plant, but assists in the rendering of the plant in graphic form.
Students may bring their own materials. All other equipment and materials are provided. The course is taught within an artist’s studio complex and is led by Alison Day, who is both artist/photographer and qualified botanist/environmentalist. Cost: £25
Booking is essential, for further information, please contact Alison Day.
