These are just lovely! I would really like to be able to take a class like that! nancy

Nanke, thanks very much.
If you want some guidance in Botanical illustration I highly recommend the book: Botanical sketchbook of Mary Ann Scott. ISBNnr.: 9781596682320
She studied at the SBA= The Society of Botanical Artists.
In her book you can follow her journey while she makes all her excercises and assigments for the diploma course. It is almost like you participate yourself and you can do the execercises and assigments to learn from.
At Amazon.co.uk you can take a look inside the book: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Botanical-Sketchbook-Mary-Ann-Scott/dp/1906388598
At Amazon.com the book is very reasonable prized.
