This is a response to your question about drawing in museums. I have a friend who taught classes at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science and this is what he said: I have drawn in museums in classes and alone and never had any problem and when i taught courses in drawings there was never a problem. In an art museum one time however they would not allow us to even take a form of pictorial notes, words were ok but this was a special exhibit and not their collection. As far as copying I believe the standard is never copy exactly what is there, which unless you are very very good is not going to happen anyways but usually I believe the the practice is to create smaller or crop from the original. If you are concerned with it simply ask at an information desk or call ahead of time to find out if there are any regulations.
