Explore the art of botanical drawing and painting. Using nature as our inspiration we will specifically focus on botanical subjects. This course will enable you to enter into the addictive genre of botanical art and illustration.With the emphasis on essential observation and drawing skills, watercolour techniques, colour matching and composition, you will be guided through the stages of producing beautiful study pages or pieces of botanical art, whilst simultaneously allowing you to develop your own style.
This is primarily a studio based course, though there may be a trip to the beach (weather permitting) to sketch and study plants growing in their natural habitat. Tuition will be both group and one to one. Demonstrations and discussion will continue throughout the course and individual ideas will be encouraged and developed. There will also be access to reference materials to aid and reinforce learning.
Subject materials will be made available though you are very welcome to bring along a botanical subject of your choice, or a botanical work-in-progress which you wish to continue to develop.
The course is aimed at both beginners and improvers; it can be extremely advantageous for those with little or no experience to work alongside painters with some expertise. The sharing of skills and knowledge is greatly encouraged and can be beneficial to all concerned.
