Botanical Illustration

In this 8-week course we will work in graphite, ink and colour pencil to realistically depict detailed drawings of plants, their flowers and fruits. The course is suitable for all levels from beginner to those with drawing and/or botanical knowledge. Art materials and various subject matter will be provided to use in this relaxed learning environment. The course will begin with basic drawing skills, techniques and analysing a subject. In the initial weeks you will produce sketchbook pages; and you will have the option to work on a final personal project of your choice in the later weeks. 

Materials provided
All materials are included, but you are welcome to bring your own tools or images for inspiration. 

Who can attend
Participants must be over 18 years old.
