Nature Journaling with Melinda and MBNJC

Join Melinda for a nature journaling session with a different topic each month.  January: Finding Hidden Gems in ordinary nature.

Sometimes amazing things can be discovered right under your nose in the most ordinary objects. 

We'll explore something that is common, or that you are used to seeing and check it out with varying perspetives.

Start at 9:30 am- end at 11:00am Pacific Time. Schedule:

• Start with an introduction of the topic
• Have time for sharing of ideas,
• We log off the computer to nature journal outside in our own nearby nature,
• Return to Zoom for sharing our discoveries and journal pages. ***This is THE BEST part- not to miss!!

Who can attend: Open to all levels. No experience needed- just come with an open mind and willingness to try!

What to Bring:

• your journal, or sketchbook or paper
• pencil, pen
• colored pencils or other color media (watercolor, markers etc)
• Something you see a lot of-- For example a fruit, or leaves/needles that you've collected from a nearby tree, or rocks/shells/cones from your nature treasure stash, a houseplant, lettuce from the refrigerator
• magnifying lens- optional
