This is a beginner drawing class focusing on using grids to help you draw any object/image accurately.
You will learn how to photograph a botanical object, change the photograph to black and white, and add a grid overlay to the image. You will then learn how to replicate the grid on drawing paper and enlarge or reduce its size.
After this, you'll learn to select one grid to draw your image onto and transfer your drawing onto your final drawing paper.
Your teacher, Joanna, will guide you through the process she uses to produce her highly detailed graphite botanical artworks.

Hi, I am Joanna and I have been a botanical artist, business owner and teacher based in Brisbane North. I have been focused on Botanical Art since 2017, when I started as a hobby and it quickly grew into a business. Before that I was a high school art, science and horticulture teacher.
I am a social person and love meeting new people and helping them with their art journey, in a relaxed and fun way.
I hope that I can teach you to make something beautiful, that you are proud of.
