Join artist Nina Grauley as we train our hands, eyes, and ‘wonder muscle’ in this introduction to field sketching and nature journaling. The workshop will begin with instruction that will introduce students to the practice of field sketching and teach some helpful tips and tricks. We will then take our sketchbooks out into the surrounding landscape at the beautiful Reflection Riding to practice observational drawing and painting in the wild!

Please note: All supplies included. We will use shared art supplies, but sketchbooks will be yours to keep.
