Natural History Drawing Workshop
Hand drawing Kookaburra with pencil
Come along to our free Natural History Illustration workshops and learn to draw from professional artist Trevor Weekes!
We will start with a tour of the "Margaret Senior" exhibition for inspiration, and view original artworks and rare books in the Special Collections Reading Room. Afterwards, we get together in L326 to draw from natural history specimens and get creative! Drawing materials will be provided.
Trevor Weekes is a practising Artist and Educator in fine art and natural history illustration. He exhibits regularly, with both solo and group shows within Australia and workshops throughout the Hunter Valley. His art practice embraces multi disciplines, specifically Drawing, Painting, Sculpture, and more recently Artists Books.
Registration is required.
The workshop will also run on the 4th of May and the 18th of May
