Nature & Nurture: Wind in the Willows

This Nature & Nurture class will premiere this summer inside The Nature Creative membership. Join us for three months of extra content themed around the landscape, flora and fauna of this beloved childhood classic.

We'll explore the life of author Kenneth Grahame, look specifically at water voles, toads, moles, and badgers, consider the habitat of the English waterway, have special tea times and "out of the box" nature journaling projects. Nature walks, watercolor tutorials, and watercolor pencil tutorials will be an important way that we connect the material of Wind in the Willows with our own nature surroundings.

Recommended supplies: sketchbook (I will use a canson mixed media sketchbook in the 7x10in size) Pentel Aquash medium water brush, watercolor pencils (I'll be using Faber-Castell 12 Albrecht Durer Watercolour pencils), a pencil, a sharpie, black gel pen, micron drawing pen (any size you like), and watercolors (I'll be using a yellow, burnt sienna, quinacridone red rose, ultramarine, cerulean, and sap green -- you can find this collection for sale on my website).

Videos will release weekly inside The Nature Creative through the months of June, July, and August. After September the class content will be removed from The Creative. You may choose to join the Creative for the summer months ($29/mos), or purchase Wind in the Willows class directly right now for guaranteed access of 2 years to class materials.
