4 Day Botanical Workshop this September

Somerset Art Association
welcomes
Katie Lee
Katie Lee 
 4-day Botanical Workshop
September 8, 9, 10, 11
10:00 am - 3:00 pm
 This workshop will introduce students to the fundamentals needed to render plants and flowers accurately in graphite pencil and watercolor or gouache.  Through a series of simple exercises students will learn how to look closely, understand floral structure and most importantly learn a variety of techniques created to remove the mystery of how to depict botanical subjects realistically.  Additionally, students will be encouraged to keep a 'seasonal nature journal.'
 
Katie Lee is a renowned botanical and wildlife artist and instructor.  A graduate of the New York Botanical Illustration program, Ms. Lee has been an instructor at that institution for the past 16 years.  Her uniquely realistic botanical and zoological paintings have been successfully exhibited in one-person shows in the United States and abroad.  Her paintings have been accepted into the prestigious Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum's publication Birds in Art, 2002 ad 2003.  She ha also illustrated a number of books published by Sounds Prints, Norwalk, CT as part of their Smithsonian Wild Heritage Collection.
