Description

Drawing Birds as Living Animals 

Tecolote Nature Center
September 30 and October 7 (Two Saturdays) 
8:30 am –1:00 pm both days
Taught by David Stump

Learn to see and draw birds from the inside out – from the skeleton and musculature 
to their complex feather patterns. Strengthen your skills in using a simple pencil to 
reveal the structural design and organic beauty of living birds. A 16-page, amply 
illustrated workbook will be provided for each registrant, with seven lessons being 
covered over the two days. 
The workbook is supplemented by a Powerpoint presentation with over 60 pages of 
drawings and photos.

Bring an 8x10 or larger drawing pad and pencils, including a blue non-repro pencil if 
you have one.  We will have light refreshments but not lunch.

The workshop leader will be David Stump, a long-time contributing artist and former 
president for San Diego Audubon.

Scholarships are available for this program. Please let us know if the program fee is a barrier to participation for you.
