They create their own sketchbooks from recycled materials, learning the basics of bookbinding along the way. Their sketchbooks then serve as the foundation for the topic of botanical drawing.
What grows on the Stadtheide, and how can I depict a plant’s typical characteristics? And why are drawings in books still so important? A workshop for anyone interested in a creative and botanical journey of discovery.
You are warmly invited to this artistic nature experience!
