brush brush - A monthly watercolor botanical illustration lesson by Shiho Sakurai, learning from the basics.
The final part of this five-part course will involve participants completing their own original stamps using a motif of their own choosing.
We will carefully discuss with each participant and give advice on key points to keep in mind when drawing flowers and botanical patterns, as well as tips on which angles to cut from to create a balanced drawing, so even those who are new to illustration can participate with confidence.
