Celebrate Earth Day by sketching in Reno’s beautiful Wilbur D. May Arboretum at Rancho San Rafael Park with Sidne Teske. Participants will explore how to use postcards and sketchbooks as useful note-taking exercises while being inspired by their surroundings. This workshop is open to all levels of skill.

About Sidne Teske
Sidne Teske is a self-taught pastel painter, who makes plein aire landscapes as well as large studio pieces. She often sketches with watercolor when out in the field. To change things up a bit, she also makes books out of found objects, such as broken musical instruments, and translates her love of petroglyphs into furniture.
