CURRENT: Botanical Art and Artists Facebook Page Banner - Autumn 2017

The Facebook Page associated with this website is also called "Botanical Art and Artists" - and often features posts from the Facebook Pages of individual botanical artists. I change the banner each season.

Artists are listed under their country in alphabetical order according to the name of their Facebook Page.
If the artist is not clear from the name of the Page then their name is added afterwards. |
Most of the Facebook Pages belong to artists who are professional or semi-professional and practising botanical artists / illustrators and/or tutors. Some use botanical art for commercial art. You can learn a lot about the life of a professional botanical artist by following the activities of those who post frequently.
Some are still students. Their pages typically contain news and images of their latest projects, classes and exhibitions. |
Galleries featuring Botanical Artists
The Galleries which choose to feature botanical art are few and far between - so it's nice to see that some also have Facebook Pages. It's such a shame that Kew Gardens does not have a Facebook Page for its two botanical art galleries.
Notes for those wanting to develop a Facebook Page
Facebook can be a great aid to communication, networking and marketing art - if you play by the rules!
- Back in 2012 I wrote this post Artists on Facebook - The Scope and The Rules which explains the different ways that artists can operate on Facebook
