Anatomy of Birds
Sept 15-17, 10 AM-4 PM Smith Studio
Ages 16 up - all skill levels welcome
“Anatomy
of Birds” offers the opportunity to study the anatomy and
movement of a variety of bird species through lectures, PPT
presentations, handouts, and observational drawing from taxidermy
specimens.
The goal of this workshop is to cultivate a greater capacity to observe
birds in nature by first studying and drawing them in a studio
classroom. Weather permitting, on the last day of workshop, cloass will
be held in the field where participants will have the opportunity to
observe and draw birds in their natural setting.
Along with your drawing supplies, bring your field glasses and your love of birds!
