SUMMARY:Native Plant ID for Beginners
DESCRIPTION:Explore the basics of native plant identification with instructor Robert Jennings\, an expert in natural lands management and environmental sciences. Learn the proper method of scientific classification and how to use this method to aid with narrowing down plant ID possibilities. Gain an understanding of why plants are placed into specific categories and increase your confidence with how to ID unknown plants to at least the Family or Genus level. After learning some of the basics\, we’ll go outside to visit the Morton Native Plant Garden to try out your new plant identification skills. We’ll explore the beauty of native plants in both an aesthetic and scientific way. You’ll walk away being able to name more of your “neighbor” plants that you encounter in your day-to-day life\, which is one of life’s great simple pleasures. \nFees: Member $40\, Non-Member $48 \nAll programs are subject to change. Pre-registration through our website is required. This class has been rescheduled from its original date on June 8. \nLewis Ginter Botanical Garden strives to be a Garden for all and we are committed to offering diverse adult learning opportunities that are inclusive and accessible to all learners.

SUMMARY:Color Mixing for Botanical Illustration
DESCRIPTION:It can seem watercolor painting needs only water + watercolor paint. Mix them together\, apply to paper with a brush and voila! It’s not quite that simple. It is essential for watercolor artists to observe and recreate the highlights\, mid-tones\, and shadows of specimens in a variety of hues and values. The ability to manipulate the medium and utilize materials (think: water\, pigment\, paper\, brush) is essential as a watercolorist. Color theory and basic watercolor painting techniques are introduced through hands-on exercises\, including creating color gradients\, painting a basic color wheel and its grayscale counterpart\, and creating basic forms using fruits and vegetables. Along with practicing in class\, students must also practice on their own each week. The amount of time spent improving skills outside of class is up to students. For class requirements to be met\, students must complete all projects and demonstrate basic skills in the medium. Guidelines will be provided for students to follow. In between classes\, students receive support through an online classroom. Students can post their work\, ask questions\, receive feedback from instructors and peers\, review lessons via video\, and access a comprehensive color library. Creative processes that deliver results\, color matching accuracy\, and experimentation are emphasized. In a relaxed and inspiring atmosphere\, Stephey Baker will guide you through group exercises and creative discussions. \nNew! Now open to all interested students!  Don’t miss this exciting opportunity for creatives and nature journalers to learn more about everything related to seeing and creating color inspired by nature! There is no need to have prior drawing skills in realism since the exercises are guided step-by-step\, incorporating hands-on experience\, group discussion\, and observational activities. Watercolor paint is included\, but paper and brushes must be provided by the student. Students may wish to bring a sketchbook or a nature journal if they have one. \nSome materials are provided.

SUMMARY:Toned papers with black\, white and grayscale pigments
DESCRIPTION:Whether for quick sketches or fine-finishing artwork\, toned papers provide numerous advantages. They are quite handy in greatly reducing the difficult work of applying midtones–the most time-consuming in most media. In addition\, white pigment for highlights and other light values appears more realistic and\, when desired\, can really pop! Toned papers can also be great teachers\, as they convey invaluable lessons about contrast and the relativity of light\, shade and reflections. To use this paper correctly\, however\, the artist must take its very tonal value into account\, so that it makes a large contribution to the final result. Excessive use of white pigment might give the impression that the subject is sprinkled with flour or snow\, whereas low usage of the paper’s midtones might result in the subject appearing metallic\, overly shiny\, odd\, or even unreal. Explore the potential as well as the challenges of this technique\, and learn essential tips for achieving moderation and balance that will take your art to whole new level! \nThis virtual course is led by renowned international artist Rogério Lupo. Recordings of each class will be permanently available to students. \nFees: Member $220\, Non-Member $264 \nAll programs are subject to change. Pre-registration through our website is required. \nLewis Ginter Botanical Garden strives to be a Garden for all and we are committed to offering diverse adult learning opportunities that are inclusive and accessible to all learners.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Ikenobo Ikebana
DESCRIPTION:Ikebana\, the art of Japanese flower arrangement\, was introduced by the Buddhist monks in the mid 6th century through their floral offerings in the temples. They began teaching the art in the 14th century to nobility\, shoguns\, samurai and merchants. The principles focus on lines; which represent heaven\, man\, and earth; space and form. As the western world opened up to Japan so did western flowers. This new world brought great expansion of the art. Today there are over 600 schools of Ikebana. Ikenobo is the first school with records of instruction to create this art. The first step towards enjoying this Japanese art is to understand the basic principles that will be shared in this class. This is the first of a series of Ikebana classes introducing students to the various schools of Ikebana that are practiced in Ikebana of Richmond. This instruction will give you the ability to begin enjoying this mindful art independently\, and will also allow you to progress with your skill level through further instruction as you so choose. \nFees: Member $45\, Non-Member $54 \nAll programs are subject to change.
