Supplies, information and details for: Botanical Drawing II - Academy of Botanical Art

In Botanical Drawing II the objective is to become very familiar with our subject, to inspect its individual parts, or what we refer to as KEY ELEMENTS, so that we can actually see their forms; to translate these forms into their geometric counterparts; and finally to tone or model these shapes for a three-dimensional effect. The Art Portfolio listed below is for creating your Diary of Geometric Forms in Nature. You will need an Xacto knife and/or a dissecting kit to dissect your plant. A strong hand-held magnifier or microscope will also be helpful in this class.
