This retreat-style three-day workshop, is held at a beautiful private property on the banks of the Ringarooma River in North East Tasmania.Everyone can draw, given a little bit of time and guidance. So, you will be guided through the process of observing and drawing plants accurately.
You will learn lots of interesting and fascinating facts about plants, Australian ecosystems and general botany. In this nature retreat, Tanya will explain fundamental botanical terminology to help you identify plants and understand their basic biology. After the retreat, your new knowledge can be applied to gardening, revegetation and plant identification.
Tanya doesn't expect you to have any prior drawing or botanical experience. This course will suit anyone interested in observational drawing and natural history illustration even if plants are not their preferred subject matter. By the end of the workshop, you should feel comfortable drawing and will have developed close observational skills. You will appreciate the beauty and complexity of plants in nature through:
• Observational drawing techniques
• An introduction to botanical drawing and nature journaling
• A greater understanding of plant diversity and structure
The pace will be gentle, the focus on feeling content and relaxed in a peaceful environment. Of course, food is part of the experience, too -- with fabulous chef-prepared meals!
