In January workshop, we will study how to make unique and appealing composition in your botanical art. Students are recommended to select their own specimens, in pots preferably, because they need to be studied for long period of time. The composition studies will be developed into watercolor paintings. February: Bold & Modern Design in Ink Composition studies from January will be further developed into more traditional ink study, but in modern design. Using unique features of crow quill pen nibs, students will be able to find this 'almost forgotten' medium truly aesthetic. When: Jan.10 & 24, Feb. 21 & 28, 2015 Where: Brushwood Center at Ryerson Woods, 21850 N. Riverwoods Rd, Riverwoods, IL 60015 Spe
