Colored Pencils are a fun, safe, and portable way to express oneself artistically. They are slow, calming, and meditative, easy to use for the beginner and challenging for the advanced artist.

Watercolor pencils allow us to create the transparent look of some of flowers or give us an underpainting for richer more vibrant color. Using botanical drawing techniques, learn the basics of color theory, drawing, and application, maybe even a little botany.

All levels welcome.

Nina Antze has a Fine Arts degree and a Certificate in Botanical Illustration from the New York Botanical Gardens and studied at the Ruskin School of Art in Oxford. She teaches throughout California and online. Her Shelter-in Place quilt was selected for the2023 deYoung Open. View her botanicals at pcquilt.com
