Welcome to Botanical Drawing 101!
Come join us for an evening of creativity and learning as we delve into the world of botanical drawing. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced artist, this event is perfect for anyone looking to improve their skills and connect with nature through art.

Botanical illustration has been a celebrated form of art for hundreds of years and we're going to be learning all the basics you need to draw flowers and plants year-round. Learn three of the drawing techniques used by artists around the world, graphite pencil studies, coloured pencil work, and ink pointillism, to start your creative journey.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to explore your artistic side in a fun and relaxed environment. See you there!
