Creating Botanical Illustrations using Layered Media

April 5, 2024 @ 1:00 pm4:00 pm
| Cost: $55 | Cost for Members: $51

SOLD OUT!

Join Alice Tangerini, Staff Illustrator at the National Museum of Natural History, for an afternoon of botanical illustrations. Working with a combination of pencils, participants will create a detailed drawing of a flower on drafting film from living plant materials. An additional layer of opaque watercolor supplies the color on an underlying sheet of drafting film. The result of the layered media for the illustration gives the appearance of a hand-tinted photograph.

Participants will be supplied with live flowers and color photocopies or prints of the live flowers as subject matter for tracing. The instructor will do demonstrations of each method and show how to register the layers.
