Trompe l’Oeil Workshop
Roskamp Center for Arts and Humanities
March 12-13, 2016
9:30 am – 4:30 pm
Trompe l’Oeil is a French term that means “to fool the eye”. Trompe l’Oeil artwork attempts to be so realistic that the viewer is fooled into thinking that the three-dimensional object presented is real instead of being a two-dimensional representation. In this workshop, botanical artist and instructor Diane Harm will introduce botanical artists to this style of work. Participants will explore the full range of values from white to black using graphite, charcoal and carbon pencils. They will also learn a variety of blending methods for use in the creation of a botanical drawing. Colored pencil can be added as an option.
This workshop is sponsored by the Florida Society of Botanical Artists and will be taught at the Roskamp Center for Arts and Humanities located at 1226 N. Tamiami Trail, Sarasota, FL (view map).
Cost: Members $125; Non-Members $150
