Botanical Illustration Workshop

Botanical Illustration Workshop with Glendine

Hosted at Karoo Madonna Atelier | Somerset West

Date: Saturday 26 July 2025 | R1,200 per person

Join artist Glendine at the serene Karoo Madonna Atelier for a one-day creative workshop that invites you to explore the beauty of botanical forms through modern illustration techniques. This immersive experience is perfect for both beginners and seasoned creatives who wish to loosen up their style, reconnect with their creativity, and learn to work confidently with mixed media.

What You’ll Learn:

• Mark Making: Discover the power of expressive linework and gestural strokes to add movement and energy to your artwork.
• Watercolour Painting: Learn how to work fluidly with water-based paints to build transparent layers, soft washes, and depth in your florals.
• Ink Illustration: Use acrylic inks to define and enhance your botanical shapes with bold, dynamic lines and contrast.
• Mixed Media Techniques: Combine ink, paint, pencil, and other media to create rich, textured pieces that are uniquely your own.
• Loose & Intuitive Drawing: Move away from rigid perfectionism and embrace a more relaxed, intuitive approach to drawing that prioritizes feeling over form.

Guided by Glendine’s warm and professional teaching style, you’ll explore a loose, expressive way of working that captures the soul of nature rather than its precise anatomy.

What’s Included:

• All art materials (inks, paper, brushes, etc.)
• Coffee, tea, and freshly baked pastries
• A calm, inspiring environment surrounded by creativity.

📍Venue: Karoo Madonna Atelier, 148 Main Street, Somerset West
