However, there was one thing we didn&#8217;t get to talk about. I forgot to ask her what art supplies are best for nature sketching!!! Fear not, I will cover that here.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tWyrVSYxHis\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Nature Sketching with Christine Elder<\/h2>\n<p>I have been wanting to interview Christine for sometime. She has been practicing nature journaling and sketching longer than most. She has also been teaching and leading trips for many years. Did you know that she went to the same science illustration program as <a href=\"http:\/\/johnmuirlaws.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">John Muir Laws<\/a>? I tried to get into the program but was not accepted! You can <a href=\"https:\/\/csumb.edu\/scienceillustration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">learn more about it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout her <a href=\"https:\/\/christineelder.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">website<\/a>, Christine also emphasizes the therapeutic benefits of nature sketching, including its ability to reduce stress and promote mindfulness. Her workshops and courses are designed to be accessible to individuals of all skill levels, and she encourages participants to explore their creativity and develop their own unique style.<\/p>\n<p>Next, let&#8217;s look at some of the benefits of nature sketching.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the Benefits of Nature Sketching?<\/h2>\n<p>Nature sketching is a relaxing and enjoyable way to connect with the natural world and improve mental health. By capturing the beauty of nature on paper, individuals can quiet their minds and experience inner peace. Nature sketching also encourages self-expression and boosts confidence, as individuals develop their skills and find their unique style. Moreover, nature sketching deepens one&#8217;s understanding of the natural world by improving observational skills and appreciation for its complexity and diversity. It can also be a social activity that fosters connections with others who share a love for the outdoors and art. Participating in workshops and courses can help individuals form meaningful relationships and build a community around their shared passion. Overall, nature sketching offers a wide range of benefits for individuals of all ages and skill levels, from improving mental health and creativity to fostering connections with nature and others.<\/p>\n<h2>Art Supplies for Nature Sketching<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3994\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3994\" style=\"width: 655px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-3994\" src=\"https:\/\/marleypeifer.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screen-Shot-2023-03-23-at-8.31.00-AM.jpg\" alt=\"nature sketching supplies that Christine Elder uses\" width=\"655\" height=\"367\" srcset=\"https:\/\/marleypeifer.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screen-Shot-2023-03-23-at-8.31.00-AM.jpg 1450w, https:\/\/marleypeifer.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screen-Shot-2023-03-23-at-8.31.00-AM-768x430.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 655px) 100vw, 655px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3994\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Some of Christine&#8217;s favorite nature sketching supplies<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span id=\"page83R_mcid1\" class=\"markedContent\"><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Following is a list of Christine&#8217;s complete nature sketching travel kit directly from her website!

In fact, her minimal setup is just a sketchbook, mechanical pencil, waterproof pen, basic watercolor set, and a waterbrush.

In fact, there are many benefits of nature journaling while you are a beginner. Nature journaling is focused on learning not knowing.

The best place to start is &#8220;I notice, I wonder, it reminds me of.&#8221; Let et curiosity be your guide.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of your experience, we got you right here.
