Join science illustrator Jacki Whisenant for a seasonally-themed sketchbook exploration designed to encourage the incorporation of art and science into a regular practice or just for relaxation and enjoyment. The eight-week class will explore techniques for field sketching while out on a spring hike, individual spot illustrations of natural objects like seeds, spring snow and new plant growth, as well as guided exercises for looking at color and texture in both settings.
