Let&#8217;s sketch and learn about these animals together with Rachael from Doodlebugs animal adventures. Rachael will share Russian tortoises, weird frogs, as well as a legless lizard! In addition, I will share some other reptile nature journal pages below.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nA2Q29-QkR0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Rachael Wallman is a biologist, mom, and animal lover. She runs Doodlebugs Animal Adventures an animal education business. There are a lot of cool animals living in her house. However, for today&#8217;s show we are just going to focus on the reptiles and amphibians.<\/p>\n<h5>Nature Journaling Reptiles when they keep moving?!<\/h5>\n<p>By this point you might be asking: &#8220;How can I draw moving animals?&#8221; While Rachael holds up her animals and shares info about them I do my best to capture quick sketches and notes. Here are several tricks I use in this situation:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>First, start as soon as possible<\/strong>. The longer you wait to start sketching and nature journaling the harder it will be to start.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Next, think of your drawings as diagrams<\/strong> instead of as definitive works of art. Diagrams can be drawn quickly and capture lots of info.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Draw fast. Draw a lot.<\/strong> Similarly to the last point this takes pressure off your drawing. In reality, if you just keep your pencil moving and you keep looking at your subject then you are succeeding. You are learning. That is what nature journaling is all about.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fourth, don&#8217;t get obsessed with details.<\/strong> Many amphibians and especially reptiles are covered in complex patterns and textures. Trying to capture these details from a moving animal will drive you crazy. Instead, try to capture gesture drawings of the basic shapes and essence of the animal.\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_2384\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2384\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2384\" src=\"https:\/\/marleypeifer.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG_6065-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"nature journaling reptiles at the san francisco zoo where they have a komodo dragon, the largest living lizard in the world.
