A Place to Start in Botanical Art

Here’s what you will find in this booklet:

• The basic setup and materials you need to get started
• The importance of deeper observation of plants in order to see Nature’s details in a way you have not seen it before.
• An overview of the main principles of drawing that you need to explore to enhance your drawing skills
• An opportunity to explore the first principles of drawing in a basic exercise.

Here’s what I hope to encourage with this booklet:

• An understanding that sketching and drawing can be fun and that it is the foundation for competence in this art form.
• A love of connecting with plants in a special way.
• Inspiration to continue drawing as often as you are able to.
• An awareness that if you keep drawing you WILL improve.
