If you love to draw and explore Nature in detail, then come learn how to combine those two passions into a journal you can use as a chronicle of your nature explorations, and as a keepsake that highlights your artistic growth. We will explore a few simple mediums that are easy to work with and portable like ink, watercolors, brush markers and colored pencils. We will explore fonts, calligraphy and script that will give you a fun and easy way to record minor or major details, and help embellish your drawings. Most importantly, Nature topics VARY! It could be about raising chickens, planting a vegetable garden, identifying flora and fauna on your property or a trip you've taken to a National Park or Italy! Whatever your subject…let’s make it fun and personal! Your art is your art. I will simply share some how-to’s.

All supplies will be provided including a journal. 

We will be outside at times so bring a hat and a beach towel or small beach chair to sit on in the courtyard garden as we create. Silence your phone or leave it in your car. Disconnect for a bit and reconnect with the beautiful world of Cape May Point. 

This is an adult class for participants 18 and over

Tickets are $30 and can be purchase here.

Peaches Lukens has been drawing and exploring the natural world since she could crawl or hold a crayon. She has been passionately journaling since her first Dear Diary at the age of 5. An avid Doodler, she just follows a creative flow that is fun and calming. Her children and grandchildren love looking through her particular art journals, some serious, some silly. Peaches lives on Cape Island with her husband Mike. They are knee-deep in rehabbing an old homestead, where she finds lots of wonderful stuff to draw and remember.
