Draw nature's fascinating life-cycles, ecosystems, and biomes. Learners can draw a different system every TWO weeks in this live, online class. You do not need to be an artist to take this class. Mrs. Joyce will explain step-by-step drawing instruction as students follow along. Students can add their own creative style. This is a fun way to bring art and science together for a hands on learning experience. This class is social. Topics are discussed as we draw and learn simultaneously. No prior knowledge is needed for this class. For the ultimate experience, grab a sketchbook and join us twice a month, or anytime you are able. See you in class!

As an artist, the awe inspiring beauty of nature has kept me curiously researching the inner-workings of Earth's magnificent creations. My love for drawing science illustrations really bloomed during Botany class at the University of Oregon, as we sketched the forests floor. With the delicate webs, and life cycles, in which all is connected, breaking down due to pollution, destruction of habitats, and earth changes, I will do my best to inform others of the importance of these fascinating life cycles, as we use our artistic eye to take a closer look at how these systems rely on one another, and what we can do to preserve them.
