Nermin K Giuliattini

I was born in Ankara, Türkiye. Graduated in Fine Art University, but I worked different professional area. Since 2007 living and working in Tuscany. I am an amateur gardener and living in Florence Hills, surrounded with olive trees and vineyards.

In 2017 I started learning botanical illustration and graduated from Certificate of Botanical Illustration from Royal Botanical Garden Edinburgh. I enrolled on the RBGE Distance Diploma in 2018. I like drawing plants from life, trying to understand as much as possible. Observing plants and capturing details and drawing and painting; I am fascinated each time. Sketching is an inseparable part of discovery for me. My preferred mediums are graphite pencil and watercolour.

Title of the Project:

Rhizome and bulbous flowers from my garden in Tuscany

About the Project:

For my final project, I chose rhizome and bulbous plants that I grew in my own garden. I have had a lot of time to observe the seasonal changes of my plants. I painted the plants in their real sizes, and I would like to create a dynamic composition.
