Nature and the Arts: Botanical Art and Illustration

Channel your creativity and love for our coast through botanical illustration—a contemporary art form that captures the beauty of our natural world with precision. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the tips, tricks, and techniques of botanical drawing using colored pencils with Curtis Bartone, Savannah School of Art and Design’s Professor of Printmaking. We’ll begin by introducing the basics of drawing plant forms and develop techniques needed to create amazing detail, natural color, and convincing form. You’ll have the opportunity to use what you learned to create your very own work of art.
