Artist Walkthrough at the ‘Through the Eyes of the Piping Plovers: the Flora, Fauna and People of the Waukegan Shores” special exhibit

Meet the artists and hear their stories behind the artwork creation! Heeyoung Kim and participating artists will walk the audience through the “Through the Eyes of the Piping Plovers: the Flora, Fauna and People of the Waukegan Shores” exhibit in person.

The botanical art form requires precise control over everything involved: accurate scientific description of the species and the execution of the medium/media of watercolor, ink or pencil. When the group, Brushwood Botanical Artists, took on this shorebird project, the artists had to go through a little different process beyond plants.... Come and hear about it at this public event!

Heeyoung Kim and the Brushwood Botanical Artists have graciously offered to donate 20% of all artwork sales during the exhibit’s run to the Sharing Our Shore - Waukegan program. A special opportunity to purchase stunning artwork while supporting a local conservation organization.
