Keeping a nature journal can be a wonderful way to enhance our explorations of nature. Drawing and writing about our experiences can help us slow down, look more closely, and build a record of our observations. In this online workshop, we will explore techniques for getting started, look at examples, do some hands-on exercises, and have time for Q&A.

All skill levels are welcome. The group will be limited to 12 participants. Erica will send you an invite with the Zoom link before the meeting.

Recommended subject matter: a few easy-to-find natural objects, including interesting shells, leaves, fruits, vegetables, bones, and/or seed pods.

Supplies:
• a multipurpose sketchbook or drawing paper (preferably 9 x 12 in. or larger)
• drawing pencils of different hardness (one HB and a 2B or softer)
• pencil sharpener
• 1 gray kneaded eraser
• 1 white plastic eraser
