Research

Botanical Art and Artists Website


Great wealth of information on this site about botanical art, artists, history, and tips. Really learning a lot. 

Also getting to rediscover the incredible Billy Showell. Amazing watercolour botanicals. Left is one example. If I could paint 1/10 as good as that, I would die happy. pimp. 

She's got some free videos and tutorials that I am currently watching. I know at this stage that I want to include colour and would be quite keen on improving my watercolour skills. I also would like to experiment with ink, which I think has a really rich colour, and may mix well with watercolours as foundations. Got to play around.
