Description
Drawn to Nature is an introductory drawing course, focusing on the plant world as a basic subject. Botanical drawing is an ancient art, and we will examine how scientists and artists have drawn the natural world, down through the ages. Over our ten weeks, we will focus on a variety of plant life, as we explore line, volume, space, and color, using graphite, and water-color. Students will keep notebooks recording both the plants they draw and the techniques they learn. All levels welcome.
This will be an in-person program at the Main Library. Space is limited to 10 participants. Due to the popularity and to gain the most out of this program, we expect all participants to commit to all sessions in this 10-week course.
