I took on a botanical painting class last September at the Landmark Art Centre in Teddington with botanical artist Marcia Hughes. I've always been fascinated by botanical illustration but never actually thought that I would have enough patience to try it. Still a long way to go, but I'm loving it...
Wow: the colours, the textures, the composition... Great technique! I love all of them, but n. 3, 4 and 5 most of all.
ReplyDeleteThese are so lovely. I'm happy to learn that there are courses in botanical illustration, I thought it was a lost art, as botanical illustrations are impossible to find in books nowadays (I've been looking!), and photos have replaced them. Ciao!
