Rocky Mountain Society of Botanical Artists: Irises are Bounteous; Here Come the Roses and Prickly Pear

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.

Irises are Bounteous; Here Come the Roses and Prickly Pear

Too many, too many. We all ought to be able to do better than this.

Member Meeting. The June 28, 2020 meeting and workshop for RMSBA is cancelled. Hope to see you in September. Check this space for any announcements.

“From Platte to Peak”. Illustrate type plant specimens collected by Dr. Edwin James during the first actual scientific expedition to the western High Plains, led by Major Stephen H. Long, during the summer of 1820. Many plants are familiar and widely dispersed, and you may already have some finished pieces that fit the size limits. The Call for Entry is at Online Juried Shows, open now and closing August 15, 2020. Martha Narey is the contact for the James Plant List and supporting materials.
