The Western Montana Mycological Association and the Montana Natural History Center are proud to present a mushroom themed Sip and Sketch with illustrator and graphic designer Cooper Malin. Cooper will explain his process, describe how to imbue art with life and nuance, and provide instruction drawing in a his bold graphic style. Real mushrooms collected by the foragers of WMAA will be identified and used as subjects for your work of art. All the materials needed will be provided to create a truly magnificent piece of art.

Instructor: Cooper Malin is a designer and illustrator currently working towards a degree in Wildlife Biology. He lives in rural Montana and much of his inspiration comes from these natural surroundings. I balance my career in illustration with summer field work in biology. He is particularly interested in plants and has had opportunities to study and collect them across much of the West. Cooper has several reoccurring weekly comic strips in newspapers and his botanical illustrations are used by florists and farmers alike. With every opportunity he strives to create illustrations that are alive with a story all their own.
