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.
