Drawing Nature
Have you always wanted to learn to draw and to keep a nature journal?
I am happy to offer this course in support of Raincoast Conservation Foundation.
Drawing Nature includes three live Zoom demos, plus notes on materials and techniques. It is designed to help you jump into drawing and painting nature. You will learn some simple techniques to help you make quick and accurate drawings. You’ll find out about different materials: pencils, pens,pencil crayons, and watercolour, to bring your drawings to life. Plants, shells, bones, feathers, stones, trees and clouds—they can all be captured in quick sketches. Not only is drawing a wonderful way to be “in the moment” but a vivid record of travels, hikes, or even home.
Join me for three live Zoom demo sessions:
3 Wednesdays 1:00- 2:30 pm, November 12, 19, 26.
All sessions will be recorded and available until December 15.
Registration is now open.
This course has a value of $175 CAN; In lieu of a registration fee, please donate what you can to Raincoast Conservation Foundation (see button below.)

Raincoast: science and conservation
"Raincoast Conservation Foundation is a science-based registered charity that applies a unique model of informed advocacy to protect the lands, waters, and wildlife of coastal British Columbia. Led by a team of conservationists and scientists, Raincoast’s projects are rooted in rigorous, peer-reviewed research and science, and informed by community engagement. Today, the foundation also operates a research lab at the University of Victoria, a conservation genetics lab at the Pacific Science Enterprise Centre, and runs a 68-foot Transport Canada certified research sailing vessel, and operates a coastally-focused land trust, making it unique in Canada."
Our mandate: Investigate. Inform. Inspire.
We investigate to understand coastal species and processes. We inform by bringing science to decision-makers and communities. We inspire action to protect wildlife and wildlife habitats.
Our vision
Our vision for coastal British Columbia is to protect the habitats and resources of umbrella species. We believe this approach will help safeguard all species, including people, and ecological processes that exist at different scales.
