‘Botanical Illustration – Prickly Devils-Course cancelled

£55.00

With Alison Cutts
If you had this course booked with us, we will be getting in contact with you.

This is a one day course running on:
Saturday 28th November,
10 am – 4 pm.

Explore the textures and colours of cacti and master those pesky spines! On this one-day course, we will take a calm and systematic approach and paint a realistic portrait of a spiny cactus.

 

First you will look at the structure of the plant and practice recording them accurately in observational drawings. Then we will paint the plant in watercolour, using a basic palette of just three colours, to paint an attractive, contemporary botanical composition.

 

 

All materials (including cactus) provided, but if you have your own favourite brushes and watercolour paper, please bring them along. If you have a cactus you would like to paint, feel free to bring it with you. The class will be delivered in a Covid-safe environment with painting demonstrations on a large screen.

All abilities welcome
All materials provided

Out of stock
