Geology illustration workshop at the Santa Cruz Museum of Natural History

Learn to visualize and draw the rock formations that define landscapes at the Santa Cruz Museum of Natural History. Geologists peel back the stratigraphic layers by creating maps, cross-sections, and three-dimensional diagrams to show the relationships between layers of rocks, faults, and other features. Under the guidance of artist Emily Underwood, we will look at maps of local geology and study samples of the rock types typical of the Santa Cruz area. Participants will then learn the process of creating cross-sections and stratigraphic columns and draw their own. This workshop will help you to better understand geologic maps, create your own geologic illustrations, and engage with local geology by creating art.
