I got my granddaughter into nature journaling when she was 5. She absolutely loves it. I miss those times we had together. She’s 7 and in school now but we draw every chance we get! She will love your videos. We have pressed flowers for her to put in her book as well. 😊 thanks so much for sharing your beautiful work!

I love the painting . These are some of my favorite flowers and this video made me realize I haven’t seen them out in the wild recently 😢 they’re so cute

Thank you! I grew them a few times in the past and when I found them growing wild was so excited 😊

Your Journaling style is awesome! And very inspiring to watch for me. I'm doing some urban sketching, but found out I do enjoy nature sketching much more. Anyway I love it to be in nature much better than to be in the city 😊 I do a lot of watercolors at home, love to paint the flowers of my garden...and finally, a week ago I started my first real nature journaling book and it was a great experience to be outside in the forest, all by myself. I used aquarel colored pencils instead of my watercolor box. Unfortunately the weather was not the best to be outside and because of the strong wind and rain I had to stop... once again, thank you for sharing your beautiful video’s!!!

I love your watercolors. Nature and wildflowers look perfect in your interpretation! Please, if possible, could you include some photos of your notebook pages so we can see more details? Thank you!

Loved it!! So inspiring! Thank you! With your encouragement I’ve been doing simple watercolor paintings after biking or walking! My eyes are noticing so many plants I’ve missed in the past!! It’s teaching me to look and not just see!! There’s a total difference! Thank you!!

I love the idea of a nature journal and am thinking of starting one. But instead of journaling data, I would rather compose a poem about each flower. Either way, you do beautiful work and I enjoy seeing your nature journal examples.

Thank you for watching 😊 That’s a great idea to use paintings with poems! That’s why I like the idea of a Nature Diary format…you can really make your journal so personal ❤️❤️❤️

I don’t specifically keep a nature journal, I just sketch whatever catches my attention whether it’s natural or man-made, but I’m trying to include more nature journal style pages in my sketchbook. I’m currently working on a spread showing the stages of an orchid bud opening. I’ve had the plant for a year but it’s only now that I’ve noticed that the green bud changes to the colour of the flower as it opens!

What an amazing discovery and now it’s going to be hard to NOT see the little details that are often so beautiful!😊🌸❤️
