Discover the art of transforming a photograph into a beautiful botanical artwork.
In this hands-on workshop, you'll work from photo-transferred images featuring an elegant orchid arrangement and a close-up floral study, using pencil crayons and solvent blending to add rich colour, depth, and detail.
As you build layers and refine your image, you'll create a unique artwork that combines the realism of photography with the beauty of a hand-rendered drawing.
Two wood panels are included, giving you the opportunity to experiment and build confidence on one piece before completing a finished artwork on the second.
Perfect for beginners and anyone looking to explore a creative and accessible approach to botanical art.
