Debbie is Chair of the Gloucestershire Society of Botanical Illustration. From early cave paintings, ancient Egyptians, Medieval Monks, right up to the present day, plants have been depicted in one form or another. With potted histories of some of the most famous artists, this talk will take you from those earliest days through the age of discovery when Botanical Illustration was at its peak. Today Botanical Art is currently undergoing a renaissance with more and more people practicing and appreciating this fascinating art form.
An evening for all.
