Warm-up + Project
We are going to focus on John Evans's botanical paintings. These simplified abstract paintings of water lily ponds reveal layers of paint, and repeat patterns in shape and design. Sometimes even a more playful design element appears. Create your own botanical piece inspired by the work of John Evans.
I have included some photos of plants from the Chicago Botanic Gardens for your reference or feel free to select your own images.
As always you may use any materials of your choice.
Materials:
paint
markers
oil pastels
paper collage
