Illustrating a Wild Maine Spring with Watercolor and Ink

This all-levels class explores illustration with pen and ink and watercolor. Students will explore principles of scientific illustration by observing and painting Maine’s spring transformations— from salamanders to ephemeral wildflowers. Students can either buy themselves the required materials - the materials list is linked here - or they can buy pre-made material kits from the Mix, an art store in Brunswick (here is a link to a student-grade kit, and here is a link to an artist-grade kit).
