Smithsonian Associates presents a four session online studio arts course from May 30 – June 20 with Natalia Wilkins-Tyler. Learn to see like a scientist as you use watercolor and ink to illustrate specimens from nature. Gain confidence in observing form while documenting and interpreting what you see. Learn how to apply key techniques such as composition, working with color, and recording fine detail in nature journaling, watercolor painting, drawing, and creating stand-alone biological illustrations. Students with drawing or illustration and composition experience are welcome. Some previous drawing and watercolor experience is required.
