WORKSHOP ON BOTANICAL SKETCHING

The Tompkins County Public Library and the Finger Lakes Native Plant Society will host Botanical Sketching, a hands-on workshop for all ages and abilities, Saturday, March 13 from 1:30 to 4:00 PM in the Library's BorgWarner Community Room.

The third in a series of four workshops being held in conjunction with the Library’s Living Light art exhibit, Botanical Sketching will be taught by Camille Doucet, a local artist who paints nature with a tender penchant for botanicals. Bring a sketchbook or regular paper, a few favorite pencils and an open mind. Come sketch plants and enjoy a delightful way of interacting with the plant world.

Doucet exhibits her exquisite watercolors extensively. She teaches watercolor and drawing through the Cornell Plantations, the Community School of Music and Art in Ithaca, and privately. Please visit http://www.camilledoucet.com/ for a closer look at her artwork and classes.

This program is free and open to the public. It is limited to 15 participants, and registration is required. To register, email David Werier (Nakita@lightlink.com) by March 1. For more information, visit www.flnps.org/artshow.
