Dick Rauh and I will be co-teaching a class on orchid morphology and orchid painting at NYBG on April 27 & 28 (Dick), and May 1 & 2 (me). First, Dick will teach two half days online about orchid botany on April 27 and 28. Then for my two full days of the class, we'll paint an orchid in the classroom at NYBG. Orchids will be provided from its famous orchid show! This will be in the style of a scientific full color book plate, like the painting at left. For information and to register:
