Baby Birds: An Artist Looks Into the Nest
July 18, 2017 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
$5.00 – $7.00Julie Zickefoose, Artist, Writer, and Naturalist
Why and how do baby songbirds develop so quickly, some launching into flight only 11 days after hatching? Zickefoose painted wild nestlings day by day, bearing witness to their swift growth. In this talk, she shares her influences and artistic process, a must-see for the aspiring natural history artist. Art and science blend in her every pursuit, as the scientist’s relentless curiosity joins the artist’s quest for beauty. Lecture free with purchase of book from The Shop.
