Yesterday we had a veritable flock of sketchers from Devin Dougherty’s Studio Arts class (Drawing I), who were seeking inspiration among the birds.  We set them up with an array of beautiful books from our Enders ornithology collection, and enjoyed having a dozen or so intent minds and hands at work, spread out in the seminar and reading rooms.

We are planning to put some of these sketches alongside the original books in the Watkinson exhibition cases in late April–stay tuned!
