WATERCOLOUR BOTANICAL ART (RHS) (HB)

Unlike botanical art books that only focus only on painting techniques, and botany books that do not take account of the artist's method, Watercolour Botanical Art balances both botany information and the painting practice used to depict it. Includes diagrams and text describing the plant, a checklist to follow when examining a plant, example paintings by celebrated botanical artists, step-by-step techniques, and practical tips for working outdoors, visiting plant collections, and collecting or photographing plant specimens for study.
