Introduction To Botanical Drawing 5 Weeks

About

"Plants have great cultural importance they are used as symbols of identity as well as for food and medicine. In this course we will be taking a close look at the plants we use in our everyday lives. We will follow the seasons creating a personal collection of illustrations documenting the herbs, vegetables and flowers that have particular significance to us as individuals.

We will be using drawing materials such as sanguine and graphite pencils as well as watercolour and will be honing our practical skills and techniques exploring the following

- Observation

- Texture

 - Line 

- Colour

- Proportion 

- Volume

- Light and shadow

- Composition

We will also look at Botanical Illustration within the context of art histories

In the final week of the of the course we will take some time to collectively share our illustrations and stories

This course is suitable for those who have no previous experience as well as those who want to expand their existing skills.

All basic materials will be provided but you are welcome to bring along personal favourites as well as some specimens to work from.
