This exercise was more successful than I anticipated. I found that I make somewhat fatter bodies than the pictures. Being aware of this is very helpful.
1.) I could not quit laughing. This is so much fun. The shape of the bird is most challenging. I think I really like drawing branches and leaves.
2.) I would have never noticed the bit of moss on the branch and the way the light sits on the branches and leaves. I have always been concentrating on the bird in the past. This is amazing.
#1.) Nature journaling will be a unique way to document places, plants and birds. I am very excited to give it a try. I can recall many unique places I have been and saw something unexpected. This will be a great way to record my experiences.
