Join me in person at the Point Reyes National Seashore to draw the beautiful flowers of summers- sunflowers, zinnias and other summer flowers, or favorite flowers from your own garden.

We will explore a variety of colored pencil techniques and learn how to blend, burnish and create new colors while incorporating the techniques of botanical drawing. We will focus on color theory, color application, value and form.

We will create sketchbook pages to document what is happening in our gardens each month. We will look at the spring flowers and leaves just budding, the roses of May and June and the sunflowers and zinnias of July and August.We focus on color and color mixing, colored pencil techniques, and learn a little botany as we go along. Learn to look closely at the changes in plant life in your own backyard.
