This class is tons of fun, combining drawing tips with dino facts. All skill levels are welcome, ages 15 and up! Jason will provide instruction each step of the way. Gain drawing skills and a deeper understanding of the anatomy of T. rex as you create a beautiful work of art.

Instructor: Jason C. Poole has worn many hats: Adjunct Professor of Paleontology, scientific illustrator, art teacher, and paleontology field instructor. Jason has excavated dinosaurs on three continents, including Africa and South and North America. Paralititan, Dreadnoughtus and Suuwassea are three dinosaurs Jason has worked on. All three were new to science when discovered and two are supermassive titanosaurs. Jason is also a paleontological artist who has published in National Geographic and whose art work appears in many museum and private collections. Jason resides in Missoula and can often be found sketching in the studio and the great outdoors. For examples of Jason’s dinosaur art, come by the MNHC to see his art exhibition or purchase his coloring book; Dinosaurs Behaving Badly.
