As I noted inward my Interviews amongst RHS Botanical Art Gold Medal Winners at this year's RHS Botanical Art Exhibition - icon a dainty icon is non enough!
Painting flowers nicely isn't enough. There's a clear in addition to rigid botanical scientific discipline theme running through the stories of many of the novel Gold Medal Winners. Dissection in addition to the portrayal of the consummate constitute in addition to life bicycle should travel high on the agenda of whatever aspiring Gold Medal winner
The botanical scientific discipline theme for me essentially agency telling the life storey of a constitute in addition to demonstrating all its relevant parts - on ane canvas of paper.
Following the exhibition, I'd noticed that at that spot seems to travel a lack of websites amongst a focus on the topic of botanical fine art for artists. On the other mitt there's quite a lot of data on the Internet in addition to at that spot are likewise rattling practiced books.
Botany for Botanical Artists covers books providing advice on
- drawing the shapes in addition to parts of plants correctly in addition to thence they demonstrate right constitute morphology
- Botanical Latin in addition to the right price for naming the unlike parts of plants
- places where y'all tin larn to a greater extent than virtually analytical botanical ans scientific example for artists (still developing this section)
AND
- lists of national botanical networks
- lists of botanical gardens inward unlike countries (I've all the same got to transfer the USA, Australasia in addition to Asia)
- lists of arboreta roughly the world
Most of the website involved transferring content from ane website to another. I started to railroad train content on my Botanical Art - Resources for Artists website in addition to and then realised it was getting a flake hefty.
Any suggestions every bit to useful additions volition travel much appreciated
