Fee includes all materials. 8 Tues., Sept. 11-Oct. As you draw, you will become familiar with basic plant anatomy as well as with diagnostic characteristics. Watercolor will be the primary medium, though you may use colored pencil or pen and ink. Sketching between classes is recommended, with drawings to be critiqued in class.
Instruction is individual, and all experience levels are welcome.
A supply list will be mailed. As part of a partnership allowing us to bring Christopher Cismesia and Jason Miklik to the Garden, a favored instructor, Nancy Snyder, will be teaching this term at the North Shore Art League in Winnetka. Her botanical illustration course will discuss watercolor as a lovely medium for capturing botanical subjects. However, it can be difficult to handle. This intensive two-day workshop will be full of tips, techniques and demonstrations.
