Botanical Illustrations Workshops
Back by popular demand, we are running two Botanical Illustration Courses, with Bridget Gillespie.
Botanical Illustration is the art of depicting plant forms accurately, to capture their individual characteristics and to aid identification. This 3-day workshop will be in a step-by-step format, with demonstration and individual tuition from Bridget covering drawing, composition and watercolour techniques. Suitable for complete beginners to intermediate painters. Materials are not included.
