Building upon the introductory botanical illustration courses led by Hazel Buys, this class emphasizes shading, light, and form while familiarizing students with the properties and techniques of watercolor paint. Students learn how to hone their ability to render three-dimensional shapes in watercolor through a series of workshops, demonstrations, and discussions. Students complete a fully realized monochromatic painting of a plant (student’s choice), utilizing a range of watercolor techniques to describe the surface texture, tonal variation, and form of the plant.
