Art and Wildlife: How To Draw Small Mammals
Join us for a CPAWS Manitoba webinar to create cute critters with your pencil!
Naturalist and illustrator Heather Hinam will walk you through the basics of bringing small mammals to life. We will explore form, shading, and fur as we draw realistic fuzzy friends.
You will learn how to creatively transfer what you see to your sketchbook and explore how to use elements of line, shape, shading, space, and colour to construct a composition.
Supplies needed: pencil, eraser, and a large piece of paper
