Jean Mackay is an artist, educator, and naturalist. She has been keeping an artist journal for more than nearly 20 years a way to study and share the beauty and diversity of nature, as well as to record the art of everyday living. Working in all kinds of settings, from tide pools to farm fields to her own backyard, Jean’s journals reflect a keen eye for detail and profound sense of wonder. Jean teaches at the Hog Island Audubon Camp in Maine and at the Art School of Columbia County in New York. Her blog, Drawn In, shares the ordinary, yet extraordinary things that she encounters close to home and farther afield. www.jeanmackayart.com

Hi Jean, I just got to watch this, very informative and inspirational, thank you. Which paints did you use on the bird?
Thanks for attending. I didn’t get as far on the page as I thought (an hour goes fast!), so I have some process sketches and the final piece finished. Watch for them here soon.
