Plant Life Drawing 06

You are invited to the sixth instalment of 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝑳𝒊𝒇𝒆 𝑫𝒓𝒂𝒘𝒊𝒏𝒈 at Greenhouse Studios on Thursday 15th May, 7-9 pm

Branch away from anthropocentric life drawing norms and immerse yourself in the wonderful world of plants. Sketch a series of carefully curated displays to ambient music, observing and appreciating the beauty of plant bodies. Displays will be set up to express an ecological theme and there will be a brief introduction at the beginning of the night to introduce the species on display.

The event will be facilitated by Fabian and Tallulah - we are the co-directors of Greenhouse Studios, and behind the scenes we are huge plant nerds. Tallulah is a plant scientist and botanical illustrator with 4+ years experience as a university biology tutor. Fabian is a lifelong plant appreciator and propagator.

This event takes place on unceded Gadigal and Wangal Land and may involve the use of native plant species. We pay our deepest respect to the rightful custodians of this land and acknowledge their ongoing care for Country as well as the vastness of Indigenous plant knowledge and artistic expression.

Plant displays will be carefully selected to minimise disturbance to local ecosystems  and no plants will be killed for the sake of this event. It is our hope that this event will encourage environmental stewardship and reduce plant blindness.
