About the workshop:
One of the best ways to unwind in this busy season is to immerse yourself in nature through the medium of art! Join local artist and naturalist Allison Donohue for a morning of drawing and painting from the natural world. In this session, we'll focus on using graphite and watercolor to observe and capture the beautiful patterns of turkey feathers. This workshop is appropriate for adults at all levels of art experience. All materials will be provided, though you are welcome to bring your own if you prefer.
