Led by Dawn Wright, a seasoned botanical artist with over 15 years experience, this one day workshop is tailored for enthusiasts of all levels, promising a blend of learning and creativity. As a Fellow of the UK’s Society of Botanical Artists and member of botanical societies such as the Eden Project Florilegium and the American Society of Botanical Artists, Dawn brings a wealth of knowledge and passion to this workshop.

Get back to basics as we commence with pen sketches, immersing ourselves in the intricacies of the subject (a chosen flower in season), and understanding its every curve and detail. Dawn will highlight the challenges inherent in capturing botanical accuracy, fostering discussions and offering invaluable insights along the way.

Progress seamlessly from sketches to refined outlines through meticulous drawing and tracing exercises. Explore advanced shading techniques and delve into the art of colour mixing, laying the groundwork for vibrant and lifelike representations.

Under Dawn’s expert guidance, participants will progress from sketch to paint, translating their vision onto canvas with confidence.
Join us on this captivating artistic journey where precision meets creativity with Dawn Wright as your guide.

Refreshments and a light lunch will be provided as well as all materials needed for the day and to take home. This kit will include 3 artist quality watercolour brushes, 3 pencils, a small set of Winsor & Newton professional level watercolour paints and professional artist level watercolour paper.
