Drawing from Nature: Songbirds
JUNE 27 – Join us in the Songbird Aviary for active gesture drawings of songbirds. Attempting quick and numerous sketches helps improve visual instincts, and will help participants create more realistic drawings in nature journals and sketchbooks. In the last hour of the workshop, you will begin a more finished work on a songbird from your study. Drawing, sketching, and watercolor experience are not necessary, all skill levels welcome.
