Botanical Illustration in Gouache: Foliage
Wednesday, Feb. 25th, 6-9pm

with Julian Plum

The natural world is full of interesting forms and colors, and our green neighbors are some of the most spectacular. In this three-hour course, you’ll learn how to paint vibrant, interesting leaves in gouache. We’ll go over observational drawing, leaf shapes & types, techniques for creating depth, and finishing details to really bring your plant illustrations to life.

NOTE ABOUT WORKSHOP MATERIALS:
Paints, brushes and substrates are provided for use during the course of a workshop. If you find that you love the paint, kits are available to purchase with Julian. Cash or Venmo payments accepted. 

About Julian:

Julian Plum (he/they) is a queer, transmasculine picture book author and illustrator living in Newfield. Working primarily in gouache, his work blends bright colors and warm, tactile brushstrokes. Mostly, Julian's work celebrates our neighbors: the frogs, mice, wood sorrel and mushrooms in our backyards and woods. When he isn't painting, Julian can be found mostly in his garden, negotiating with chipmunks about blueberries.
