The Illustrated Moth: Natural Science through Watercolors
Friday, 30 Mar 2007 at 8:00 pm – Hughes Auditorium, Reiman Gardens
Dr. John Cody, revered as "The Audubon of Moths," began sketching scenes from nature when he was eight years old and later had a professional art career as a medical illustrator. He went on to medical school and became a renowned psychiatrist, practicing for more than twenty-five years. Cody will describe his world travels to photograph and paint the Saturnid moth.Cosponsored By:
