Botanical Drawing Workshop with Garden Tour (One-Day)

with Katharine Amies

Thursday 14th May | Thursday 2nd July 2026

Product Code:

Join us at Highgrove for a Botanical Drawing Workshop hosted by Katharine Amies. This one-day course begins with the fundamentals of drawing, where you will learn how to create convincing three-dimensional forms using a pencil. You will then apply these techniques to a small botanical subject, such as a vegetable, fruit, or rosehip.

As the workshop progresses, you will be introduced to watercolour, learning how to move and layer paint across the paper to achieve smooth tones and depth of colour. With these skills, you will go on to draw and paint a flower or small botanical subject, bringing it to life through careful observation and delicate brushwork.

The day also includes a one-hour guided tour of the gardens at Highgrove and a two-course lunch, offering the perfect opportunity to take inspiration from the many botanicals found throughout the gardens.

Please note, this is a one-day workshop.

About Katharine

Katharine Amies is a leading British botanical artist whose work explores the intimate beauty and character of plants. Through her art, she seeks to capture the essence of botanical forms and bring the natural world into people’s living spaces.

Katharine explains, "My vision is to capture the essence of plants and bring them into people’s living spaces. I want people to feel uplifted when they see how even the most humble vegetable is a wonder of artistry and design.”

She trained at the Chelsea Physic Garden in 2001, and her work is held in prestigious collections, including the Shirley Sherwood Collection of Botanical Art at Kew Gardens, home to the world’s largest collection of contemporary botanical art, and the Hunt Institute for Botanical Documentation at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, USA.

Katharine has exhibited widely, and her painting classes and workshops are highly sought after.
