The Wisdom of Leaves

The Aaron Education Center at the Bellevue Botanical Garden, 12001 Main St, Bellevue · Bellevue, WA
About this event
Taught by Jeanne Hansen. Step into a quiet, sensory-rich experience where art and presence meet in the Bellevue Botanical Garden. Slow down, wander the gardens, and reconnect with the subtle beauty of the natural world through painting fall leaves. Gather fallen leaves that speak to you—not for their perfection, but for their texture, color, shape, and the quiet stories they carry. Learn painting techniques that can be applied to a variety of subjects while reflecting on patterns in nature, embracing imperfection, and cultivating presence through creative practice. By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a series of painted leaves, a deeper connection to nature, and a renewed sense of creative flow. No prior art experience is needed—only a willingness to explore, observe, and create. BBGS Member $56/Non-Member $80 Supply List: Watercolors, watercolor paper, brushes (small round).
