Diploma Course in Botanical Painting
Our next one-year Botanical Painting diploma course commences in January 2012 - there is still time to apply. The course is highly regarded and is seen as partially responsible for the resurgence of interest in this ancient method of depicting plants.
This course is a wonderful opportunity to learn accurate illustration of plant material within a historical and scientific context. Previous graduates have works in collections, exhibitions and one-man shows around the world.
The course takes place on Mondays, with an additional two days a week spent on homework.
