Bird Journals for Beginners and Continuing Journalers – Observation, Markings, Poses: The Essentials *FULL*

Get started or continue with your bird journal, using drawing, simple watercolor, and writing. We use specimens and photos to practice. You will try simple ways to learn to see in new ways, then draw, write, and use watercolors, and develop your pages. No art experience needed, just enthusiasm and a few tools! Register for each class separately.

Observation, Markings, Poses: The Essentials

In this class learn to observe more skillfully, and translate it to your journal. We’ll focus on ways to simplify markings, capture the pose,  and note the most important details. Jude will share penwork and watercolor hints. This is a monthly Saturday class with Jude Siegel. You may take one or more of the series! Each class is complete in itself with a focus and exercises. 

Trail Accessibility: This class will be held in the Bird Alliance of Oregon nursery area which is across the street from the Nature Store and main building. It will require a walk of about 400 meters up a moderate hill. It is a dirt trail and the ground below the tables and chairs is not even.
