Black, White, & Shades of Gray: Botanical Art in the Winter Garden
A perfect project for the New Year! Explore the Garden and focus on developing your drawing skills as we learn to see the Garden in a fresh, new way. Beginning Friday, January 8, 2010, this five week class will explore black and white media as we observe and draw interesting plant structures in the winter garden. The classes will include:

~basic drawing instruction and practice covering gesture and line, shape and volume, value and the effects of light, pespective and composition,
~media exploration – using graphite, pen & ink, brush & ink, markers, and papers that work best with each,
~field sketching in the Garden – observing buds, branches, shrubs, trees, and more!
~friendly sharing and feedback on both completed drawings and works-in-progress,
~planning and completing more finished artwork, matting and display.
"Beginners are welcome, both artists and botanists. People with all areas of expertise, at all levels, contribute to the class as a whole." ~ Sue

A fun class with 9 students all interested in furthering their skills in Botanical Illustration! Several commented that they had learned to see the world in a different way. January/February was fairly rainy, hard rain - not sketchable drizzle... so on those days we drew from the lovely atrium plants in the Visitor's Center at Bellevue Botanical Gardens.
