Nature Center to offer class on basic drawing

Sunday July 6, 2008

Sugar Grove Nature Center near Bloomington is offering adults the opportunity to see art in nature.

Using pencil, adult artists will explore various methods of observing and drawing nature-related subject matter from photos, still life and live specimens. Emphasis will be on components of a successful drawing, such as shapes, shading and negative space. No drawing experience is necessary, just a desire to observe and learn. Space is limited and registration is required.

Nature Drawing Basics will be offered from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Tuesdays, July 15-Aug. 5. The fee is $40 for Nature Center members and $50 for nonmembers. All materials are included.

For information or to register, phone 309-874-2174, or e-mail register-sgnc@earthlink.net.

Sugar Grove Nature Center is in Funks Grove, just south of Bloomington-Normal. For a map and directions to the center and membership and program information, visit online www.sugargrovenaturecenter.org.
