Are you just getting started with nature journaling? Or have you returned from a break in nature journaling and want some tips on starting again? Check out Marley Peifer’s easy 5-step guide to nature journaling:
- Take out your journal and get down your metadata!
- Start observing something and drawing right away. Don’t wait! Pro-tip: turn your drawing into a diagram!
- Use all three nature journaling languages: words, images, and numbers.
- Capture the context. How? You can make a landscapito, or a thumbnail, or make color swatches on the edge of your page, or do some creative writing.
- Reward yourself! You did it!
