Watercolor Journaling
Art Workshop: Garden Watercolor Journaling : Tree Studies
Presented by: Betsy Rogers-Knox
April 18 10:00 am – 3:30 pm
Understanding tree structure is the basis for learning to sketch and draw trees correctly. Hollister House Garden provides us with an abundance of beautiful trees as subjects for this enjoyable watercolor journaling workshop. Venture out into the garden with botanical illustrator Betsy Rogers-Knox to practice close observation skills and as you learn to draw different tree trunks, barks, branches and buds. Then return to the barn for step-by-step watercolor lessons. All skill levels are welcome, beginners are encouraged to join!
Bring a bag lunch. Water and snacks provided.
Required Materials: Journal and pen, $30, are required for all new garden journaling students and should be purchased with your reservation. If you participated in a Hollister House Garden journaling workshop previously and wish to use the journal and pen you previously purchased, please be sure to bring them to class.
