Botanical Painting WorkshopsDouglas Fir Cone

Weekend workshops are being offered at my Southeast Bend, Oregon studio to learn the techniques of botanical illustration in watercolor.

The two day courses cover the step by step procedure that enables most people who are proficient in the basics of drawing and watercolor to learn the fundamentals of botanical watercolor painting.  If the participants are experienced more advanced skills will be presented. 

The small classes offer individual tuition as well as covering the basics required.  This includes specific supplies needed, drawing and painting techniques, composition, color mixing, creating a color guide, painting white flowers or tackling complex botanical structures.

This is an opportunity to learn the techniques required to capture flowers and other natural subjects in a series of straight forward steps.  Necessary supplies will be made available to beginning students.
