Back by popular demand for 2020, we will be running two Botanical Illustration Courses, one in the Spring and one in the Autumn.
This 3 day workshop will be in a step-by-step format, with demonstration and individual tuition covering drawing, composition and watercolour techniques. Bridget Gillespie has been a Botanical Illustrator for over 23 years. She has been awarded Gold Medals by the RHS who have purchased several pieces for their archive collection. Inspiration for your illustration can be taken from walking around the beautiful Himalayan Garden and Sculpture Park.

This is a practical course, 10am to 4pm each day in our Information Centre, suitable for complete beginners to intermediate painters. If you do not have your own equipment, a list will be supplied for you to purchase before the course begins. Morning refreshment of Tea, Coffee and Biscuits included each day, as well as free entry to the Garden.
