In this outdoor sketching/art workshop, choose from two options for gathering clues from plants or animals, and exploring their relationships with each other, us, and their surroundings: 1) Delve into plant secrets by sketching with traditional materials and techniques; or 2) Arrange gathered natural materials (twigs, leaves, stones) in 2- or 3-dimensional patterns, guided by their characteristics and your intuition.
Intrigued? Try both!
Project Art for Nature (PAN) artists Vera Ming Wong, Christine Olson and Bonnie Ploger will guide these practices, in Mines of Spain conservation area around E.B. Lyons Interpretive Center. Open to all experience levels, whether you’ve never made art or are an experienced artist. Ages 13 and older. Registration encouraged but not required.
