Beautiful flower buds made with colored pencils

『Botanical Art with Colored Pencils』, which has been widely loved as a standard book on botanical art techniques, has returned with a revised and expanded edition to celebrate its 5th anniversary.
This revised and expanded edition includes six new works, including 'Daffodils', 'Lilies of the Valley', and 'Thistles' from 'A Glimpse into the Drawing Process', and 'Pansy', 'Cherry Sage', and 'Jasmine' from the gallery, enriching the content.
Let's draw with colored pencils the various plants around us: gorgeous flowers in a vase, fruits ripening deliciously under the warm sunlight, and muddy mushrooms on a supermarket shelf.


In the Middle Ages, botanical art was created to record the usefulness of plants, but after the 18th century, it began to be recognized as an art form in its own right, establishing itself as a field of fine art.
It takes a lot of practice to draw flowers accurately.
In order to develop accurate drawing skills, composition skills to create a pleasing screen, and express the beautiful colors of flowers, it is necessary to understand the basic theory of color and practice using the medium (tool) to express color.
Building on these fundamentals, you can use the media freely and approach creation more easily.

『Botanical Art with Colored Pencils』 introduces the necessary tools and their uses for drawing, and covers the general content required for drawing.
You can learn how to use colored pencils through simple basic exercises such as drawing lines, expressing light and shade, and using colors. It also includes step-by-step drawing processes explained in an easy-to-understand and detailed manner, as well as example works that will help you draw botanical pieces.
As you look at this book and draw, you will be able to decorate the paper in front of you with various colors and create your own garden.
