I thought it was great to see a variety of journals. I’m hard on myself and this helped me realize it is time spent observing and recording that imprints things into my mind. The sketch may not be that great but if I take notes and sketch even something quickly, I will remember the experience vividly. i have always loved recording notes about nature and sketching. I am not very consistent however. I liked the idea of doing a page a month and adding bits throughout the month.  I also would like to do a better job of recording when I’m traveling.  I’m excited to take the class and make this  a habit for myself. I find it is a great way to learn and be more observant.  It is also calming for me to spend time observing nature and sketching what I see.
