I’ll guide you, step-by-step in creating your own nature-inspired art journals with drawings, watercolor paintings, and bamboo and ink renditions of what you love in the flora of your world.
In our Nature Drawing Bundle, you’ll get:
🎨 Drawing Closer to Nature

Dive into a world where your creativity takes root! Imagine bringing nature to life through botanical ink and creating beautiful journal pages that tell their own story. From botanical drawings to stunning ink designs, each design unfolds a new way to connect with the natural world. Grab your supplies and let’s begin this artistic journey together!
Botanical Beauty is a self-paced recorded video and PDF class where we will play and explore the gorgeous botanical forms that are possible with a bamboo brush and ink.
You will respectfully gather some natural inspiration, and then together we will explore leaves, stems, fronds, seed pods, petals, and all sorts of botanical forms to create beautiful, inky botanical paintings.

This class is not art therapy. However, I am a registered art therapist, and I use my understanding of psychology, mindfulness, and the artistic process to help students tune joyfully into the moment and engage in their art practice in deeper ways. We will not use this class to address your mental health concerns, but engaging in a mindful art practice, like any mindfulness or art practice, may have positive benefits for your overall sense of well-being.
Yes, this class is accessible on a page hosted on my website. The videos are all shot in HD and require a broadband connection for viewing the class.
Your PDF is available for download and you’ll have access to the class as long as I have a website. Videos can be viewed on my site at your convenience.
This is a self-paced class with videos and a PDF. You can access them at your own pace and use them to support you in successfully completing the 5-day Peaceful Patterns Challenge, and many days of patterning in your art journal.
Because this is an immediate, lifetime access class, no refunds will be granted, regardless of circumstances. Registration is non-transferrable.
Mindful Art Studio was created with you in mind. It’s my way to stop your inner critic from getting in the way of your creativity.
All my courses and resources are inspired by the connections between nature and art, and invite you to explore patterns, materials, ideas, and often the simplest things as the basis to a thriving art practice that fits into your everyday.
I’m a trained art therapist, so I include mindfulness practices and techniques for getting the inner critic out of the way in all my classes.
