I did this drawing as a part of a Domestika course led by Lapin in Barcelona. He had turned his usual interest in urban sketching to botanicals during the pandemic lockdown.

Allan Gardens
This greenhouse is in a park a few blocks from my home in Toronto. It opened for a few weeks to the public and then Omicron closed it down again. I had sketched a few of the plants in December, but it wasn’t open on this day in January.

I really enjoyed taking the Domestika course Botanical Sketchbooking: A Meditative Approach with Lapin. Drawing with a microliner with no preliminary pencil sketch was a bit scarey and frustrating at first.
