The Bird Days of Summer: Drawing Native Plants! *FULL*
Nature & Art is for everyone. Reconnect with your creative side as we try drawing native plants! We will focus on one native plant to identify, forage, & then sketch. Absolute beginners are welcome! No drawing or plant ID experience needed. Just bring your creative energy and curiosity!
Rhiannon will be our guide on our botanical drawing journey. Rhiannon brings her curiosity of nature and experience as an Oregon Teaching Artist. You can follow what she is teaching and drawing:
