Looking for botanical art classes near you?

June 4, 2013 by Tania Marien

Are you looking for botanical art classes or natural science illustration classes in your area? Let’s get this information out there and try to resolve this for you.

If you are looking for classes, post your city and state (or province & country) below. If you do not want to post the name of your actual city or town, then post the nearest largest city — some place you don’t mind driving to attend a class.

Also, please remember that you don’t need to post your full name when you post a comment or question. You can use only your first name if this makes you more comfortable.

I receive inquiries from time to time and thought I would put this out to everyone to see who is looking for classes.

The most recent inquiry is from a reader looking for classes in the vicinity of Evanston, Illinois.

Take a look at the Classes Near You section to see if any new classes have appeared. If you don’t find anything even close to where you are, add your city and state (or province and country) below.

Instructors — Do you teach in any of the areas below?

If you do, send information about your classes and I’ll create a listing for you and post an announcement.

    Hi: I have been looking for years for botanical art courses in my area.

    I live in Vernon, British Columbia, Canada. Anyone out there near me who might be interested in teaching or joining me in learning botanical art???

      Hi Debbie, Carol, Lori and all……
      I have bought all the usual botanical art instruction books, books on botany
      and just don’t seem to have the drive to do it on my own. I seem to have lost my passion for botanical art as I haven’t painted in three years. I would like to get back to it as I have so much invested as well as having the talent to do the work. I think I need a mentor.
      I heard that Anna Knights (through ArtPlantae information blogs) is possibly having an on-line or correspondence course that she will be presenting some time this summer.
      I was following the Yahoo botanical art site but it seems to have petered out.
      Could/would it be possible for a few of us to learn via a book, online with each other critiqueing our work? I feel like I have been searching for the long extinct dodo. Impossible????
      Best, Anne
