How to Sketch Waterfowl and Wildlife

Learn techniques to quickly and accurately sketch wildlife from life. Drawing is a useful tool to augment your field notes and help you observe wildlife more carefully. In this outdoor workshop, we will learn how to quickly draw waterfowl and other animals at the Lake Merritt Rotary Nature Center. With a combination of demonstrations, technique lectures, and time to practice you will refine your ability to draw what you see, capture behavior and posture, correct anatomical details, deal with moving subjects, and learn how artists simplify complex subjects to help you get it down on paper with speed and accuracy. Register.
