Creative Nature Journaling: Migrations (Recorded from a live workshop)
Nature Journaling Workshop (recording from a 2 hour live workshop)
In this session we will be exploring how to Nature Journal migratory animals and birds, using maps, drawing, words and numbers.
Join Bethany as she introduces you to the joys of nature journaling. If you love art and nature or want to develop a deeper connection to the natural world, through drawing and creativity then this fun and practical session is for you.
Nature Journaling sessions are held every month and follow on from my popular Creative Nature Journaling course(available here). Every month we will look at a different subject to keep you journaling throughout the year.
Your Tutor Bethany Y Milam will guide you through step by step demonstrations of various drawing activities and techniques for adding your observations into your journal. We will work on developing observational drawing skills as well as encouraging you to think outside the box in how a sketchbook or nature journal can be used.
What you will gain from the sessions:
• Improve your drawing skills and observational drawings.
• Boost your creativity.
• Learn about the natural world. Slow down, pay attention and experience wonder and curiosity.
• Nurture your sense of connectedness, wellbeing and calm.
• Have fun!
Suitable for all abilities including beginners. Keeping a nature journal or sketchbook of observations is a fun and creative way of learning, collecting and organizing your observations and thoughts you do not need to be an artist or naturalist to enjoy these sessions.
