Bird Journals: Getting the Gist with Jude Siegel

Join Jude to learn how to see differently and how to drop unrealistic artistic expectations of yourself. Start or continue your bird journal. No art or birding experience is needed! For joy, not mastery! Keeping a bird journal is fun, easy, portable, and a creative, relaxing way to record your experiences with birds.

You don’t need a lot of details or a perfect likeness to create a beautiful journal page. In this class, you’ll learn that your way of interpreting a bird is enough! We’ll practice simple exercises in observation, drawing and fun ways to add some watercolor, with relaxation, acceptance, and a way to get some birds on those journal pages!
