This unique hybrid class with naturalist and field notes artist Roseann Hanson focuses on skills improvement for intermediate journalers, particularly those who took her spring workshop.

Hanson begins with a Zoom lecture on Friday evening reviewing and honing techniques, and then Saturday morning the class moves onsite at Tohono Chul Park in Tucson practicing these deeper skills.

Can’t join us in person, or are a little nervous still about COVID? There will be the option of an interactive 360-degree virtual tour of Tohono Chul Park so you can visit and take part as well!

• Honing observational skills through memory journaling

• Practicing sketching little landscapes or animals by focusing on shapes

• Using viewfinders and grids to isolate subjects and draw them quickly
