Artists Handbook of Botany Reviews

There is always something new to learn, in this book Liz helps us to look with understanding and then look again from a different angle to delve deeper into the story of the plant. The book is beautifully illustrated by Liz herself along with members of the Hampton Court Palace Florilegium Society, these images give the reader a good insight into how an informative botanical illustration should be set out to create a good design, as well as at the same time conveying detailed botanical information. -- Valerie Oxley, President, The Institute for Analytical Plant Illustration * President, The Institute for Analytical Plant Illustration *
This is not a botany textbook! Instead, by using copious diagrams and drawing on her knowledge as a botanist, Liz Leech explains how to look at plants and dissect flowers in order to make informed and accurate drawings. -- Pam Taylor, botanist, botanical artist.
