Banish the blahs and bring on the blooms! Join artist/illustrator Helen Byers for a weekend at Tower Hill Botanic Garden immersed in the colors and forms of spring flowers. The class will run February 13 and 14 from 10 – 4. Instruction will cover step-by-step techniques of detailed botanical painting in watercolor, including wet-into-wet for washes and dry-brush for texture. Returning and advanced students who prefer to draw in colored pencil will be welcome to do so. Daily painting demos and personalized instruction. Flowers will be provided, and a list of recommended supplies will be sent to registrants. To see galleries of Helen’s work and slideshows from her courses, visit www.helenbyers.com.
