Author and illustrator Signe Parkins teaches simple techniques for getting started with drawing, and offers a fresh way of looking at Danish birds. Drawing sharpens the eye and gives you a deeper sense of the world around you, as you start noticing shapes and details you would normally miss.
Together you will draw robins, blackbirds, wrens and other Danish birds using black fineliners. Parkins shows how to work straight into the black ink without sketching in pencil first. Mistakes and imperfections are allowed to remain part of the finished drawing.
This is an extra session, repeating the workshop held on 27 October at Brønshøj Library. It is part of the "Wild about Science" festival, which presents science for adults in many formats across Copenhagen's libraries in October and November.
