Classical Drawing Techniques in Botanical Art with Claudia Campazzo
Saturday, October 18, 2025
8am – 4pm
Masking can be an effective tool for building layers of texture for certain subjects, such as bark, ground litter and rocks! This hands-on workshop introduces classical drawing techniques rooted in the atelier tradition, with a focus on botanical art. The atelier tradition is a centuries-old method of artistic training where students learn through direct observation and practice under the guidance of master artists to achieve technical mastery and create lifelike art. In this environment, skills such as precision, technique, and careful study of the natural world are emphasized. In the morning, using graphite pencils, we’ll explore methods like blocking-in, shading, and working with values. In the afternoon, we’ll apply these techniques to draw a rose from a printed reference, refining your skills for lifelike results. Get ready to slow down!
Supplies:
- Strathmore 300 Bristol SMOOTH 9x12 or bigger if you already have it. No need to order this specific size.
- Pencils: Staedtler LUMOGRAPH brand (blue wood - NOT BLICK blue wood brand) 4B, 2B, HB, H, 2H, 4H, two of each.
- If your pencils are used past the middle length, please either get new pencils or aluminum pencil extenders.
- Kneaded rubber eraser.
- Stick eraser, Tombow Mono.
- Pencil sharpener.
- Desktop Light.
- T Square.
Optional but recommended:
- Retractable cutting blade for sharpening your pencil.
- Sandpaper for sharpening your pencil.
