Painting Plant Life

This course or workshop is fully booked.

Explore the characteristics of plants as you use them for subject matter in painting.


More details

This course will concentrate on observing the ways plants grow and discovering ways to represent this in your artwork. You will learn to link the practice of observation, gathering plant information and expression of personal feelings and then develop this into a larger painting. You will be challenged to think beyond obvious human perception by investigating things such as how pollinators find flowers and the colour energetics used in these symbiotic relationships. Over the six-week period you will explore colours, plants, and pollinators through the act of seeing and close observation, preliminary studies, and then the development of one larger painting. This course will encourage a creative practice inspired by the way plants behave. FRIDAYS, JUL 11 - AUG 15, 10AM - 1PM CANCELLED
