Cabinet of Wonder - Drawing

As you explore the collections of the Natural History Museum, you will assume the role of the Naturalist who was both artist and scientist. Through the act of close observation, you will gain unique perceptual insights into our specimens.

 

Every second Friday, you will meet with a different scientist at the museum and focus on a different section of the vast research collections. During the alternate weeks you will focus more on learning new watercolor techniques such as layering and achieving texture, working directly from museum specimens.
