You’ll learn how to plan, compose, and execute a modern botanical drawing with intention and clarity.
Working on A3, 300g paper with colored pencils, you’ll explore how to bring a fresh, current sensibility to a classic subject—Camellias from Vergelegen's world class Camellia Plantation—while maintaining the botanical accuracy and precision that define the discipline. The goal is straightforward: to elevate tradition without compromising truth. Refine technique without losing soul. Good drawing skills are mandatory.
