Grocery Store Flower Botanicals Workshop
Thursday, February 22, 2024
This workshop, lead by Mary Priestley, will be 9:30–11:30 a.m., Saturday, Feb. 24, in the Spencer room 171.
Flowers that we sometimes pick up when we’re grocery shopping brighten our winter days! For this workshop, we will choose individuals from among a bouquet of these colorful flowers to do a pen and ink illustration to which you may want to add watercolor. There will be a demonstration of drawing alstroemeria, a lovely flower that is usually included in these mixes. We will start by dissecting a flower to see how it’s constructed, then move on to drawing from life or tracing from a photograph. Bring a pencil and your cell phone; other materials will be provided.
