Sharpen your pencils and your drawing skills, make some marks, and have fun during this tune up with Jean Mackay. Practice the art of seeing and rendering objects using pencils, pens, and ink and wash. Beginners and experienced artists alike benefit from improved drawing skills, confident mark making, and strong values. Bring a variety of drawing supplies—pencils, pens, water soluble pens, dip pens, or whatever drawing materials you’d like to try.

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
