The Subject of My Research

I have always had an interest in Botany but have never had the chance to really learn about it in any detail. Plant forms in general are a huge resource for design inspiration, not only in their structure but in their uses and what they represent in many different cultures because of the properties they have. I think they are fascinating. I am also aware that when looking back at my work from the last year, my use of colour was extremely limited. Seeing as colour forms such a large part of plants and their shape and identification I want to try and use this project to make myself really examine colour and how to use it. I also want to learn about identifying plants and the different environments they grow in.
