Painting Polinators

This course provides the opportunity to explore a range of watercolour and mixed media techniques for depicting a wide variety of pollinator species including bees, butterflies, moths, wasps, hoverflies, ladybirds and beetles. Throughout the course and the creation of life studies we will find out more about these fascinating creatures, their behaviour, food source and ecological role. Techniques will be explored for depicting form, texture, colour, creating field studies from life as well as magnified images and intriguing illustrations. Packed with video demonstrations and handouts this exciting online course gives you the opportunity to develop fine art, field observation and transferable skills to a variety of subject matter whilst working at a convenient time and pace for you. Your assessment will include a personal project and research and create a signage board or a project for press on habitat and environment.
