Join us for an afternoon of drawing for the joyous love of plants! This skillshare workshop & artist’s talk will focus on some of the techniques, approaches, and mindset that neighborhood tattooer and illustrator Lillin Karin brings to botanical observational illustration.

This time is welcome to artists of all skill-levels and experiences - so beginners are very welcome! We will focus on blending visual accuracy with whimsical and heart-forward interpretation, to cultivate a playful emotional connection to plants through illustration.

Our workshops and events are available at a sliding scale. We invite you to practice economic solidarity with your community and choose the ticket tier that makes most sense with your financial situation.

  • This tier is at the market rate and reflects the true cost of the service, labor and expertise of producing the workshop/event. This price point allows us to generate a profit. We encourage those with access to wealth to opt for this tier as it enables Brooklyn Grange to offer more tickets at an accessible price.

  • This tier reflects the cost of our service labor and expertise required to produce the workshop/event and allows us to make a small profit. We encourage those to opt for a Sustainable Ticket if the price point of a General Ticket is prohibitive.

  • This ticket tier reflects our intention to make our events open for all! We want all members of our community to enjoy Brooklyn Grange no matter their financial situation. Opt for the Solidarity ticket if General or Sustainable is not accessible to you right now.
