Botanical Illustration with Ink and Watercolor

Do you love plants? Learn how to create ink-and-watercolor botanical illustrations with a flexible style that you can do indoors or outside.

Together we will learn techniques to sketch, ink, and paint botanicals from live plants, leaves, and flowers. You’ll then learn how to take your botanical sketching practice outside to your own garden, neighborhood, or hike.

Samples of botanical illustrations from my own sketchbook.
