Learn scientific and botanical illustration techniques with artist Misha Donohoe.
What do you remember about yourself in wild places? Join artist-in-residence Misha Donohoe for an expansive workshop on collaborating with natural systems through art. Misha Donohoe is an Australian-Canadian based artist working primarily in watercolour. Misha’s practice connects with the tradition of scientific illustration.
This workshop will guide participants on the methods of field sketching using techniques of scientific and botanical illustration. Together you will explore ways that natural phenomena can be represented in science and art and expand these methods to create intimate representational studies of your experiences. As you build your impressions of the landscape environment en plein air, you will collaborate with spaces that shape and change you. Knowing this can inform the way you grow as an artists.
