About the Facilitator:
Andi Kur is a local artist who, in an unconventional twist, has a background in both science and science education. Andi taught herself botanical illustration while pursuing her bachelor’s of science at UTC, which lead to her illustrating the the Guide to the Vascular Plants of Tennessee (2nd Ed.). Andi has taught several workshops in botanical illustration over the years, not to mention the three years she spent teaching science at the Center for Creative Arts. Andi believes that science and art go hand in hand to inform each other and that anybody can learn to practice and appreciate both.
