About the book

For makers of all levels, discover practical ways to become more creative and find inspiration and meaning in your daily life by reconnecting with nature. Meet 15 makers who will describe their nature-connected works and talk you through the steps they took in creating works that tap into the importance of nature art in making a mind, body, and spirit connection. You'll learn how they created a nature journal, temporary beach sculptures, dyed textile or woven wall art, sculptural vessels and baskets with natural materials, embroidery inspired and influenced by the natural world, and much more. Discover works that integrate natural materials as well as recycled and repurposed objects. Get the feeling of having a personal, authentic, and creative conversation with the makers while you take a walk through nature with them.
