About this Event

We'll wander through a beautiful garden, stopping to observe and sketch plants and wildlife.

We’ll discuss color, mark making, composition, maintaining a sketchbook practice, and developing your drawing style.

There’ll be time to share our work, exchange feedback, and chat.

These weekly rambles invite you to slow down, capture the beauty of the seasons through drawing, enjoy the fresh air, and meet new people.

This experience is for curious nature lovers, slow travelers, and locals. All skill levels are welcome, including beginners. I will provide gentle guidance and drawing instruction.

Small group sizes (max 4 people).

What to bring

  • A small sketchbook, pens, pencils, and a pencil sharpener.
  • Refillable water bottle, comfortable walking shoes, hat, sunscreen, or light layers depending on the weather.

You'll receive a detailed materials list via email once your ticket is booked.

Location

We'll meet near the Mildred E. Mathias Botanical Garden or the Franklin D. Murphy Sculpture Garden.

Location, directions, and parking information will be emailed to you following your ticket purchase.

Admission to the gardens is free.
