Nature Journal

Here are some views of my "perpetual" nature journal, which I started in August 2018. My focus is on close inspection and appreciation of locally native plants, week by week, season by season, across the years. And on the joyful process of learning to illustrate them. As a lifelong student of the natural world, I love sharing my drawings with a bit of natural history context (Instagram feed here). Heaps of gratitude to the talented and generous Lara Gastinger for the concept and continuing inspiration. (As a beginner artist, I had experimented with a linear nature journal, shots here.)
