Botanical Illustration: Learning to truly see & draw plants

Botanical Dimensions Ethnobotany Library
Occidental, CA

Share this event:

A two-day workshop for all levels, from novice to artist, with Kathleen Harrison & guest teacher Paetra Tauchert, both illustrators of nature. By popular request we have created a full weekend course to expand your experience. We help you learn to truly see a plant's form, and from there we guide you in how to portray it realistically. The first day we work with perception and simple tools, while creating a realistic pencil drawing. The second day we expand that work into ink and/or color. This is a very enjoyable meditation on form and beauty. (You may fall in love with your plant!) We provide all materials and a very nice ambience.
