Contemporary Botanical Illustration: Challenging Colour and Texture
The authors of the bestselling Botanical Illustration Course with the Eden Project are back with new sources of inspiration for professionals and amateurs interested in creating scientifically accurate illustrations of flowers and plants.
This time they focus on solving two difficult challenges: depicting texture in pencil or paint, and painting subjects with unusual colors-from black flowers and plants (such as seaweed) to species that feature eye-catching greens, blues, or pink. There's also an exploration of new ideas in the field, including combining botanical art with traditional Japanese flower arranging. Illustrations appear throughout, many shown step-by-step just as they were created, plus practical advice on commercial opportunities for botanical artists.

This guide for botanical and amateur artists of all skill levels shows how to capture the individuality of blossoming artichokes, the smooth contours of eggplants, the sumptuous reds of glossy peppers, the cool yellows of bananas, and much more.
Using traditional methods that include overlaying washes, dry brush techniques, glazing, and masking-sometimes with an unconventional and amusing twist-the amazing paintings and vibrant palette showcased here clearly explain how to create a terrific selection of shapes and textures, each accompanied by detailed, step-by-step instructions.

BOOKS: Botanical Art and Plant Evolution / Botany
The Art of Plant Evolution
This publication is based on an 'art meets science' exhibition in the Shirley Sherwood Gallery of Botanical Art at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew in 2009/10 to celebrate Kew's 250th anniversary and Darwin's bicentenary.
The exhibition provides an overview of plant relationships based on contemporary scientific discoveries and DNA test. 136 botanical paintings from the Shirley Sherwood Collection, by 84 artists, cover 50 orders of plants in 118 families, and a total of 133 species, providing a sweeping overview of the evolution of plants on earth. The paintings display a sampling of the plant world from fungi to daisies, including algae, mosses, ferns, conifers and flowering plants arranged in the most up to date evolutionary sequence, determined by recent DNA analysis. The text accompany each image of paintings in the exhibition comments on the artist's background, and the artist's observations in the context of modern plant classification.
Publishes in the USA in February 2010

Book Reviews: Compendia of Botanical Art
- Making a Mark: Treasures of Botanical Art - a recommended read
- Treasures of Botanical Art by Shirley Sherwood and Martyn Rix has been published by Kew Publishing to mark the inaugural exhibition of the The Shirley Sherwood Gallery in Kew Gardens, the first gallery in the world to be dedicated to year round exhibitions of botanical art.
- Making a Mark: Gardens in Art: The Painter's Garden
- I have been delighting all month in reading - very slowly - "The Painter's Garden" a monumental catalogue of nearly 400 pages produced by Sabine Schulz and published by Hatje Cantz. I'd go so far as to say I've been enjoying it that much that I've been slowing down to avoid finishing it.
- Making a Mark: Amazing Rare Things: The Art of Natural History
- The strapline for the exhibition "Amazing Rare Things" is The Art of Natural History in the Age of Discovery. You can order and buy the exhibition catalogue from the Royal Collection online shop (or Amazon)
- Making a Mark reviews......: Book Review: The Art of Plant Evolution
- HIGHLY RECOMMENDED This book emphasises the scientific aspects of botanical art and provides all botanical art lovers with a comprehensive education in the botany of plant groups and families alongside numerous excellent examples of botanical art.

my book reviews on Making A Mark
- Making a Mark: Book Review - 1001 Plant and floral illustrations from early herbals
- 1001 Plant and Floral Illustrations: From Early Herbals (Dover Pictorial Archive Series) - Richard G Hatton
In reality there's very little text and an awful lot of engravings and illustrations used in early herbals. I find the herbals to be very attractive in their simplicity......I think I can now well understand why William Morris was such a fan of herbals. I'm also trying to remember which other artists liked and collected herbals - and Monet and Mackintosh spring to mind - Making a Mark: Flowers in Art: William Morris - herbals, flowers and making patterns
- This post identifies William Morris's use of herbals and sources.
- Making a Mark: Plant Motifs and Art #3
- One of the books I bought was "The Flowers of William Morris" by Derek Baker published for the centennial....What I found extremely interesting, apart from the images of hand drawn designs where you can clearly see the process from pencil sketch more cetain deign lines through pen to colour washes, was that William Morris apparently also studied the flowers of Islamic art - and in particular the tulip - at the Victoria and Albert Museum in South Kensington.
- Making a Mark: Book Review: Besler's Book of Flowers and Plants
- Besler's Book of Flowers and Plants: 73 Full-Color Plates from Hortus Eystettensis, 1613
(Dover Pictorial Archive Series) - by Basilius Besler
In my opinion, this is the sort of book which will appeal to a real fan of the history of botanical art. It's certainly very interesting from the point of view of studying classical portrayals of plants and flowers. I also found it really interesting to see the difference between the woodcuts seen in the book reviewed yesterday and how the nature of the illustrations changed as they started to use (1) copper engraving and (2) colour. - Making a Mark: Book Review: Merian's Antique Botanical Prints
- Merian's Antique Botanical Prints CD-ROM and Book (Pictorial Archives) by Maria Sibylla Merian and published by Dover Publications
All the engravings in the Merian book are taken from Erucarum Ortus, Alimentum et Paradoxa Metamorphosis published in Amsterdam in 1718. This was a book published by her daughter after Merian's death and concerns the transformation of caterpillars in butterflies - and the plants associated with that process en route. The book is literally crawling with caterpillars - Making a Mark: Flowers in Art... and Charles Rennie Mackintosh
- "Mackintosh Flower Drawings" by Pamela Robertson and published by the Hunterian Art Gallery. I managed to get hold of a very good second hand copy using Amazon. It was first produced as a catalogue in 1988 to accompany an exhibition of Mackintosh's flower drawings held at the Hunterian Art Gallery - as its contribution to Glasgow's Garden Festival. It contains large images and detailed notes of all the flowers in the collection.

my book reviews on Making A Mark
- Making a Mark: Volume 1 of The Highgrove Florilegium is published
- The Highgrove Florilegium (Volume 1) published on behalf of the Prince of Wales by Alecto Publications. Painting and horticulture are two major interests of the Prince of Wales which are combined in The Highgrove Florilegium. This started as a project in 2000 to mark the Prince's achievements in his garden and to provide a historical record of the plants. The first volume was published this week after six years work - in his 60th birthday year.
In this post I'm looking at
* the definition of a Florilegium,
* the publication of the first volume of the Highgrove Florilegium
* Historical Florilegia
* Contemporary Florilegia in the making - Making a Mark: Flowers in Art...and Dame Elizabeth Blackadder RA RSA
- The Royal Academy Masterclass book "Elizabeth Blackadder".
This book is a total bargain at £4. For anybody interested in her work, I very much recommend you buy this book as it's rich in content and comment by the artist - it very much lives up to the notion of a masterclass. Plus of course it has a lot of illustrations of her work - including close-ups of her painting as the work progresses. - Making a Mark: Georgia O'Keeffe Month: Learning about Notan #1
- I'm trying to get to grips with Notan - using "Composition" the book by Arthur Wesley Dow, first published in 1899, which was Georgia O'Keeffe's bible when she went through the same process.
- Making a Mark: Georgia O'Keeffe month: Two white irises (and three buds)
- As you know I've been hunting down useful books for my Georgia O'Keeffe month. On Friday, I bought "Georgia O'Keeffe Museum Collections (Volume 2)" by Barbara Buhler Lynes at Kew Gardens. Having now had a chance to look through this book - which is the right way to describe a book which is mainly full page plates of colour images of her work - I've come to a few conclusions.
