Introduction to Botanical Art with Catherine Watters
This class will introduce you to the fascinating world of Botanical Art. You will learn how to skillfully observe, measure and draw a Gala apple in great detail and with botanical accuracy. This is followed by mixing and layering colors to make your fruit come to life by balancing highlights, shadows and reflected light.
Students will work with graphite and watercolors. You can use colored pencils if you prefer.
All levels are welcome
You have the option to rent materials with a $20 fee payable in cash to the instructor on the day of the class by selecting “Rent Materials.”
