About the Author

Having always drawn as a child, Julia first discovered botanical art in 1998 when yer younger son was a toddler, and she signed up for an adult education course in the subject. From day one she knew that this was the artistic avenue for her, and has never looked back. She is particularly drawn to specimens that are less than perfect, such as autumn leaves, seed heads and fading flowers - sometimes depicting them larger than life. Created with careful layers of wet-in-wet watercolour followed by dry brush work, these glowing botanical paintings have received many awards including four RHS Gold medals to date. Julia now teaches regular botanical art classes and workshops and has written how-to leaflets and magazine articles. She has work in the RHS Lindley Library, the Hunt Institute for Botanical Documentation, Pittsburgh, and the archives of the Chelsea Physic Garden as well as in private collections worldwide.
