About this event
Inspired by natural history illustrations currently on display, participants will learn how to record wildlife through careful linework, use of colour, and visual storytelling. We will create our own illustrated bird study page, including a detailed drawing, feather and egg studies, a watercolour painting, and accompanying notes about the species. The final artwork will resemble a personal nature journal page, combining art and observation to celebrate wildlife and nature.
Limited to 15 teens aged 12-17 years. FREE, booking essential.
Readers are advised to check with the venue before relying on the details published here.
