Nature Drawing

Learn tricks and techniques to help you include sketches, diagrams, and drawings in your field notebook. You will learn methods that will help you draw landscapes, trees, wildflowers, mammals, mushrooms, and other objects often discovered in your nature rambles. Learn basic drawing techniques and a workflow that can be applied to drawing any subject. Discover how to get a sense of depth in your drawings, and how to complete a landscape drawing in five minutes. You can do this and there is no experience necessary. These techniques can also be taught to your students to help them get started with their own drawings.

Bring a sketchbook or journal and a pencil (also other favorite sketching materials if you have them). Snacks and drinks will be on hand.
