About Me

Dianne Sutherland: Stone, Staffordshire, United Kingdom; Welcome to my botanical art musings. Here you'll find information on drawing and painting with topics from art to science with a little history thrown in. About me: I've been a freelance artist/illustrator for most of my working life. I love to travel and illustrate species plants and teach Botanical art to the enthusiastic. I hold a BSc in Biology, a Diploma in Botanical Art and studied some IT. As part of my journey, I worked in education for a while before returning to painting full time, an experience that made me realise I was already what I wanted to be. I exhibit internationally with work in permanent collections at the Hunt Institute for Botanical Documentation and the Sydney Florilegium, I’m also a Fellow of the Linnean Society. This blog was born in 2008, the rationale was simple: to connect with other botanical artists and it worked! I met many like-minded people all over the world. Blogging motivates me and adds order to the slightly chaotic and solitary life of an artist. I hope I can keep painting and writing in 2020 and beyond.
