ONLINE: Learn to draw plants with scientific accuracy and artistic sensitivity. In this beginner-friendly course, you will work from real botanical subjects (or photos) to create detailed, true-to-life illustrations. You'll develop essential measuring skills using rulers and calipers to capture accurate proportions and dimensions, then translate the three-dimensional world onto paper. Instruction covers pencil sketching and pen-and-ink techniques, focusing on hatching, line weight, and tonal shading to create depth and texture. You'll practice how to vary line pressure and thickness to suggest light and form. While technical precision is key, you will also train your eyes to observe subtle relationships — how petals, stems, and leaves relate in size and position — to build both your visual awareness and your confidence in drawing. | Active Skill Learning.
