Willow Bark Basketry: Plaiting, Coiling and Wicker
New two-day basketry workshop! Willow bark lends itself to a variety of techniques. Willow and other small fast growing trees have wonderful bark, often with mottled cloud patterns and adhering lichens and mosses. Join celebrated ethnobotanist and fiber artist, Margaret Mathewson, to learn about harvesting and preparing willow and other barks. Weave a diagonal plaited basket, a wicker willow-bark and willow-shoot basket and if time permits, start a small coil.

Introduction to Botanical Art and Illustration
Two-day workshop! Raised in Paris, Catherine Watters now lives and teaches in San Francisco, where she documents plants at the Filoli estate garden and serves on the Board of the American Society of Botanical Artists. In this workshop she draws from her extensive artistic education and experience, beginning with a brief history of Botanical Art and moving into an introduction to the time-honored methods of plant illustration.
After close observation, students will begin with a detailed pencil drawing, carefully mix colors and apply several layers, highlight and shadow to create a 3-dimensional painting, finally applying the finishing touches to “lift” the subject off the page. Discover the most amazing details about plants - a magical peek into the wonders of nature.
