Mission Statement

The Rocky Mountain Society of Botanical Artists is an open and diverse group of artists, collectors and admirers who share a love for the practice and perpetuation of botanical art and illustration with a fond focus on plants in the Rocky Mountain Region.
We encourage and participate in educational outreach, juried and non-juried exhibits, lectures, workshops and regular chapter meetings. The RMSBA is proud to be the very first chapter affiliation of the international organization, the American Society of Botanical Artists.

Election Tuesday – Remember to Vote

Reminder: Open Studio at Carol Till’s on Wednesday, November 8, 10 am – 2 pm. On the agenda: printmaking!

Carol will introduce us to the art of making embossments from solar plates (we’ll be hoping for sunshine!). Carol has small 4-6” pieces that you can use to make your own embossment plate. Ink and paper are provided.

Note from Carol to experienced printmakers: If you want to run some prints from a zinc or solar plate that you have, bring it and your own paper, and take advantage of my press. I have limited ink colors, mostly black/earth tones.

As usual, bring something for advice/critique/show-off!

Carol Till's Studio:
