Botanical Drawing in Colored Pencil with Priscilla Humay
This botanical drawing class will have emphasis on the aesthetics of flowers, plants, vegetation, and natural objects. Botanical Art is the artistic representation of natural specimens that can be recognized in detail although not necessarily with scientific accuracy. Choose your own flower, fruit, vegetable, plant, stem, twig, or leaf as a specimen, OR use a specimen provided by the instructor. Learn how to set up your specimen showing its best qualities to draw and find ways to edit unnecessary parts. Using colored pencil on professional grade paper, you will work to achieve a near likeness of your specimen. The instructor chose the colored pencil medium because of its brilliant color, and that it can produce fine detail. It is also forgiving, and pigment can be lifted and reapplied. Mistakes can be erased, and colors can be layered vibrantly. Learn to draw with correct proportions from observation. Individual guidance and continuous drawing instruction as to correct color, proportions, flow, and tonal value will be given. Students are responsible for supplies; please see the list at https://bit.ly/draw312.
