Group Information

The Botanical Art Society of Australia (BASA) is a non-profit organisation which aims to foster and promote the development of botanical art nationwide and to bring together people who have a love of plants and of the botanical art form.

Botanical Art can be described as a liaison between the disciplines of art and science. Specifically, the aim is to capture the essence of the plant; its form, texture and growth habits, in a two-dimensional medium such as painting and drawing.

Watercolour is a traditional medium and its translucent qualities compliment the beauty of the plant. The typical range of subjects for the botanical artist includes native and exotic flowers and plants, fruits and vegetables.

Objectives of the Society are;

  1. To pursue excellence in botanical painting & Drawing.
  2. To embrace both classical and innovative approaches to Botanical Art.
  3. To institute workshops with outstanding contributions by experienced and well regarded tutors.
  4. To conduct Exhibitions of Botanical Art.
  5. To stimulate interest in plants, conservation, horticulture and the environment through Botanical Art.
  6. To promote and protect Australia’s extraordinary rich diversity of plant life by all reasonable social and other appropriate means.
  7. To provide for its members, through a Newsletter and website, relevant information about botanical art classes, exhibitions and excursions.
