Drawing from Nature

Some child of yesteryear lovingly compiled this Nature Journal.







Beginning this Sunday I will be attending the first in a series of four workshops on "Art and Nature: Drawing from the Collections at the Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History". The instructor is Erin E. Hunter, a graduate of of the noted science illustration program at the University of California, Santa Cruz. In the classes we will be working with various media, and explore plant and animal anatomy, drawing techinques, nature journaling, tips for sketching in the field, and color theory.


Here is one of my "before" sketches. What do you think?

Omnis Vero Natura Est!
