Join Sarah Roche at the National Tropical Botanical Garden in Florida to enjoy five days of botanical art! Learn how to create easy field sketches on the grounds of the stunning Kampong historic home and garden. Explore rudiments of form from live specimens as you create graphite studies, then learn how to add color in watercolor. Take home a journal filled with field sketches useful for future projects and filled with memories of a unique tropical experience.
