A couple of shameless plugs. (Full disclosure: I work in the Department of Horticulture at Cornell University, sponsor of these programs.)
Botanical illustration online course. – A great way to learn how to enjoy your plants even more by rendering them in pen and ink. Starts May 26. Enrollment limited to 20 people.
Living sculpture conference. Ithaca, N.Y. July 22. Hands on opportunity to learn how to create art from plants, including sod sculpture, woven branch, tabletop herbal topiary, tree sculpture, ephemeral earth art, mowing patterns, veggie art and more.
The botanical illustration course looks amazing! I’d love to take something like that. I’ll need to read up on what it would take to be able to do so (I would think the class is a popular one). How fun.
