Learn to paint the autumnal treasures that can be found in abundance at this time of year, in this three-day Wellesley College Botanic Garden workshop with two noted botanical artists, Dianne Sutherland and Shevaun Doherty. You will draw and paint a small “table top” collection of subjects, such as richly colored leaves, seed pods, and small, jewel-like fruits. You are encouraged to bring in your own subjects, but subject material will also be provided. Dianne specializes in leaves and Shevaun in fruits, but they are both familiar with all subjects. Benefit from more individual instructor time per student as both Dianne and Shevaun work cooperatively to support the class in the learning process. You will learn about lighting subjects, composing the page, and watercolor techniques such as washes and color mixing. The class takes place October 18 – 20 from 9:30 – 3:30. Friends of Wellesley College Botanic Garden $450, nonmembers $550. Register at 781-283-3094, or email wcbgfriends@wellesley.edu. Image copyright Shevaun Doherty.
