Nature Journaling

Posted by viriana on

Let’s draw what is blooming and buzzing all around us! Local natural science artist and author Robin Lee Carlson will guide participants through observations and drawings of local wildflowers and some of the insects that rely on them. We’ll look at flowers up close and talk about how they attract and are used by butterflies, bees, and other insects. We’ll make sketches in our sketchbooks and learn about all the different ways we can record our experiences in nature.

Fun With Sun Prints (Cyanotypes)!

Posted by viriana on

Get ready to make some fun art pieces with artist Elaine Nguyen! Cyanotypes, sometimes called sun prints, are a unique way of making art where we use the sun’s power to create images in shades of blue and white. In this workshop, we will use plants and objects from our environment to create beautiful images. You will have the opportunity to mix and match objects, test out the varying shades of blue you can create using UV exposure, and get to take home an exciting piece of art.
