course description:
In this summer drawing course designed specifically for Mountain Lake, we will take advantage of this opportunity by exploring the landscape in regards to scale, drawing the smallest of nature’s artifacts to the largest of its panoramic vistas. In respect for the scientific community that will welcome us to their nature laboratory, we will pursue that which both the arts and sciences have in common: the gift of observation. It will be through our acute observation of the environment that we will sharpen our drawing skills and expand our understanding of nature as one of the greatest muses of the visual arts.
