Nature Illustration
Nature illustration sits at the meeting point of art and observation. In this class you’ll learn to study the form, colour and texture of natural subjects and translate what you see into a detailed coloured pencil drawing. Techniques include accurate sketching, subtle shading and building layers of colour.
This is a slower-paced class, allowing time to focus closely on one subject across the term as you refine your drawing and develop depth and realism. The process requires patience, but many students find it a calm and deeply rewarding way to connect with nature through art.
Through structured lessons, you'll develop key skills in sketching, shading, colour layering, and texturing to bring your drawings to life.
