Harvard Forest

During J-term, I took part in a mini-course at Harvard Forest. It was sort of an interdisciplinary art and science program, so we learned about forest ecology and processed core samples one day and had a writing workshop the next. I put my writing below the jump. Here is one of the drawings I did on our visual art day where we used pencil and pastel on brown paper. This exercise was led by artist in residence Debby Kaspari.

Cynomys


I have been making some sketches with my water pen recently, sketching from my new "Animal Skulls: A Guide to North American Species" book. This one is a species of squirrel.
