Sketching Birds in the Field

July 28, 2024 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am
Join artist and naturalist Morgan Lewis of Ripple in the Wild/Monterey Bay Field Sketch Club for a morning of sketching shorebirds in Moss Landing. Birds provide a unique and often challenging subject, they rarely sit still for very long! This two hour workshop will cover all the basics to get you started sketching birds in the field and in your nature journal. Field sketching improves your memory recall, your attention to detail, and your bird ID skills. Instruction will be geared towards beginner field sketchers, but still great for all skill levels. Binoculars will be available to borrow. Warm drinks and baked goods will also be provided at the beginning of the class, please bring a reusable cup if you would like a beverage. Ages 16 and up. Pre-registration is required and will remain open until filled or until July 26th at 11:30pm. Please bring your own materials, sketching materials will not be provided (see event page for what to bring).
