Nature Journalling - Saturday Sessions

 

Nature Journalling - Drawing in Darebin Parklands

 

The Saturday Sessions journal drawing returns but a little bit different - this term focused on Nature Journalling. We will continue to explore art journaling but at a different location in nature, that being Darebin Parklands. The sessions will be held once a week and will be more like a class then before, but also at a new time. We will be journalling from nature together, drawing the landscape in Marco and micro – drawing leaves, trees, bark, rocks, moss and whatever else we find.

I will be guiding you, teaching you, drawing beside you. I will give you tips for drawing from observation, we will try different techniques too. I will still be drawing along-side you and ask any questions and learn from each other. We meet in all weathers, (under shelter if needed) and I may bring my elderly dog Sundi too. We can draw nature, people, animals and more. This term you can either come casually or pay in advance for a block of sessions at a discount. Just bring your journal and come along. These are great fun! :) Welcome.

Drawing from Nature – WINTER

Online and/Or  In-person

 

This term offering my iconic course - Drawing from Nature – WINTER again. Taken in two possible modes: either all online or by adding in the Nature Journaling sessions for an in-person element. Through this course you will learn how to observe from nature, to draw a range of subjects using a variety of techniques and materials. Through this course your can ignite your inner artist, connect deeply with yourself and with nature. Each class focuses on a difference and simple topic, starting with an apple, leaf, tree, flower and finishing with a two week still life. Students of Drawing from Nature will receive weekly half hour videos and class notes covering the lesson. Plus a LIVE hour and half lesson online via video call. I encourage you to add in the Nature Journaling sessions to add an in-person element too.

 

This course is unique in its content and approach, a deep dive into art and mindfulness, drawing skills and self-nurturing. Katie will provide weekly email feedback, she creates an encouraging, supportive class atmosphere suitable for beginners and those with experience. She holds a Masters of Fine Art and will give you deeply informed lessons.
