Do you want to rejuvenate your winter season with a week of nature journaling and relaxing on a tropical beach? Do you want to take a break for yourself between Thanksgiving and Christmas? Join Marley and a select group of nature journalers for a week long stay at one of the best beach-side hotels in Costa Rica. We will focus our nature journals on landscapes, tidepools, plants and if we are lucky sea turtles. Watercolor landscapes and botanical illustrations will be delved into with more depth.
Who Should Come: This trip is perfect for anyone from a cold climate that wants to revitalize their nature journaling and their body and soul with the warmth and vibrancy of the tropics. Anyone who wants to combine tropical beach-side relaxation and art will benefit from this trip. We will have daily classes and one-on-one lessons with Marley but there will also be plenty of time to relax or explore on your own. See the Andes to Amazon trip for more adventure, maximum biodiversity and multiple ecosystem destinations. Cocktails and painting the sunset with your feet in the sand every evening is more the vibe on this trip.
