This course combines art history with hands-on illustration projects. We’ll examine the fascinating stories behind centuries of collecting and documenting the natural world, from Ancient Greece to the Enlightenment, with a special focus on arts and sciences of the Renaissance. Using some of the most beautiful and bizarre examples from the last centuries as inspiration, students will develop skills in color rendering through a series of demonstrations in mixed media. This 8 session course is offered through the Yale Peabody Museum’s Natural Science Illustration Program and meets on-line.
