Join CWF for our webinar “Sketching in Nature”, a creative activity that can enrich your understanding of the natural world. Our guest speaker, Alan Li, is both a brilliant artist and a down-to-earth teacher who will share practical advice on sketching outdoors including which art supplies work best in the field. He will also give you a peek inside his sketchbooks and provide tips on how to make expressive sketches of your subjects, whether it’s a perching bird or fallen leaf, without sacrificing accuracy or realism. Sketching is for all ages and all abilities. You do not require an art degree nor do you need to feel intimidated. The best place to begin your sketching adventures is close to home; your local park, a nearby creek or woodlands are wonderful places to explore.
