Examine what qualities certain species to be at risk of extinction and how we can help protect animals now and in the future.

We begin drafting using Sharpies and pencils, then look at a variety of source materials to better learn the unique traits of our choice of animals and how we can best depict them. We finalize our drawings and learn how to transfer, carve and print our animal illustrations using Soft Kut linoleum blocks.
