2.  DUE by Wednesday     May 13, 2015

  Botanical Study in Color.  Find a plant or tree that you can study.  Because the study will be done in color, you may want to select an object that appeals to you because of its color.  Draw the formation of the stems, leaves, buds etc. carefully and accurately.  Add color and shading to define the shape/forms of the individual parts and to indicate where your light shines on the plant.  This should be like a scientific study and needs no background.            Media possibilities – colored pencil, tempera paint, water color, pastel---- stay away from markers, they are too flat to allow shading.  Let me know if you need supplies!!!
