Jump start your creativity with this beautiful Botanical Sketchbook, thoughtfully designed to help you develop your drawing skills with fun exercises and practical tools to guide your progress. A companion to the Botanical Drawing for Herbalists Course, this uniquely botanical sketchbook is made especially for plant lovers. With the perfect blend of botanical information and illustration techniques combined into your very own sketchbook, you’ll be ready to create your own frame-worthy botanical illustrations!

This functional sketchbook is the perfect place to try your hand at the drawing techniques taught throughout the course, with a handy list of materials to help you get started, plus plenty of drawing prompts, tips, and techniques to inspire your artistic practice. Select botany information and charts from the course provide a helpful study tool for learning the anatomy of plant parts and families, while honing your artistic skills at the same time. 

With 120 pages, there is ample space for you to experiment and get creative! You’ll find sketch pages with large and small linear grids, dot grids, and blank pages without any grid marks—which gives you the chance to sample the different types of sketchbooks available and see what works best for you. The page stock is ideal for exploring a variety of dry media, and the book is intentionally printed in black and white to encourage your practice of color blending techniques.
