A Botanical Rainbow – art exhibition
Organised by Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew
Experience the bold and beautiful colours of the natural world through botanical art.
From striking indigoes to sunny yellows, go on a journey of colour through the lens of botanical art. See all seven colours of the rainbow represented in intricately detailed paintings of petals, fruit and leaves.
Explore how botanical artists use hues and tones to recreate colour in nature using watercolour, oil paint and crayon.
The exhibition showcases a variety of colour techniques. See in exquisite detail how artists use either a limited palette or a wide range of shades in subtle hues to achieve an exact colour match.
