Flower Painting & Drawing - Helen Greenop

 

book courseA fascinating and relaxing course in flower painting and drawing taught by specialist botanical artist, Helen Greenop.
Flowers, fruits, foliage...an opportunity to study the transient beauty of nature and record it on paper.
Whether you wish to produce big bold bright paintings or pursue smaller more detailed studies, this course is sure to instruct and inspire.
The Course (Two days)
The workshop is designed to cater for both beginners and those with some experience. Under Helen's expert guidance, students will have the opportunity to concentrate on plants and flowers of their choice, developing the techniques they prefer. Helen will take students through her own portfolio, discussing a range of different approaches, from detailed scientific illustration to more spontaneous painting and drawing styles. Composition, form, colour and texture will be covered through demonstrations and one to one guidance.
