Botanical Sketchbooking: A Meditative Approach

El curso me brindó una experiencia de aprendizaje hacia el acercamiento al dibujo medidativo. Nunca en la vida había aprendido tanto en tan poco tiempo. Recomendado para todos aquellos que no buscan la perfección si no la relajación.

A very meditative, relaxing approach to sketching.

Mi è piaciuto il corso, ho apprezzato molto il modo di dipingere di Lapin. È molto chiaro nelle spiegazioni, gradevole nei modi. Non ho ancora terminato i lavori da lui proposti.

Really like the art of Lapin, and his smooth way to guide us.

This course is an eye opener for me - uncovering for me the joy of painting and giving me the freedom to lose myself in it - without guilt - without rush and distraction. To be and to do - with no pressure just simple fulfilling enjoyment.

I really like Lapin's thoughtful, calm way of presenting this course. His instructions are very clear and I intend to follow more of his courses.

Buen curso para iniciarse en las técnicas de acuarela botánica.
Buenas explicaciones y fácil de seguir....

Beautifully presented by Lapin, whose quiet and calm approach is reflected in his artwork and consequently passed on to the student. Very positive and easy to follow.

I learnt many new concepts and techniques and really enjoyed the relaxed, no nonsense approach to teaching, which was both inspiring and encouraging along the way

Enjoying this course while in lockdown. I love embracing the detail of flowers and leaves and the mixing of the colours. It's great to learn from someone as talented as Lapin. It's winter here so there's not much choice of flowers. I know the idea is to use live plants in natural light but failing that it would be great to have large photographs of what Lapin is looking at as a contingency.

The practice is very meditative and immersing. Love it!

I am loving this course. Lapin is very interesting and talented. I am new to sketching and watercolours and I am enjoying every lesson. I am looking at flowers and leaves in a different manner- who knew there were so many greens?! I feel as though I have accomplished something at the end of each lesson.

C'était trop bien ! J'ai tellement progressé en l'espace de deux heures ! Merci !

جيد جدا
لقد اعجبني فكرة الرسم من منظور التأمل

This is a very wonderful course. I am not finished with this course yet but I am enjoying it immensely. It's like a piece of taffy. You want to chew on it and enjoy every ounce of it. Anyone that is interested in sketching OR watercolors should give it a go.

I am brand new to sketching but I am very taken with how this course is helping me to slow down and look at things differently. I've never looked at a succulent leaf as just "a shape". I've been doing the lessons when I am alone in the evenings and am able to concentrate on limiting my focus on the plant. Lapin's encouragement regarding "mistakes" is wonderful and I've taken his advice to just incorporate the errant line into the work is very helpful.
