My Sketchbook Collection - too many sketchbooks?
What should I say? Yes - I have too many sketchbooks. I love paper and I love high quality sketchbooks. For my work as an botanical illustrator I am using different kind of sketchbooks for different reasons. I show you my stuff.

How to find the correct Botanical Green?
Переглядів 3377 місяців тому
I don't use ready-made green in my botanical palette. There is a simple reason for this: the color green is so diverse in nature that no manufacturer has yet managed to find the perfect green. As a botanical illustrator, I learned early on: the correct green must be mixed. To make my work easier, I created a portable color table - a tip that I would like to share with you. About my equipment: I...

Painting bones in Gouache
Переглядів 121Рік тому
I absolutely fell in love with gouache. This medium is a real joy and makes painting of difficult subjects much easier. In today's video I show you how I paint bones. I use gouache colors for this. Unlike watercolours, gouache is forgiving your mistakes because it is an opaque medium. Gouache paints are a good start, especially if you have trouble with light and shadow at first. In the video yo...

Mussel Hunt - River treasure sketching
How can you observe nature and not consider God and His creation? Instead you look at Charles Darwin ? I’m really complexed!
Thank you for this video! I want to gain experience with scientific writing and this video is super beginner friendly! I will definitely keep my eyes peeled and remain curious on my nature walks. 😊👍🏻💕
Thank you very much - great, that it worked out for you. I wish you a lot of fun to gain your experience with scientific writing - this is sooo exhiting.
I love the idea of using a binder. One hinderance to journaling has always been how to hold my pencil or pen near the edges of the paper and the binding. Using a binder like this would allow me to sketch on a single flat piece of paper. Also, I like your map drawings.
Thank you very much - yes, a binder is very practical.
I love this!! What a great idea. I look forward to trying this myself. 💚 thank you!
Thank you very much - I am very happy - please try it!
Thank you. this tip is very useful
Great - it makes me happy, that it was useful for you.
Thank you for posting this video. I started on my nature journal journey about 3 years ago and have been teaching myself to sketch and use watercolor. I have had trouble with 'greens'. I used your idea, and even created my own accordion book. I did a sketch and perfectly matched a rather odd greyish-green color and was THRILLED! Thanks again, and I hope you'll post another video soon.
Great, that you find inspiration for your own Journal. I am very happy to read, that it worked out for you, too!
Very nice 👍
Thank you very much.
Those are some great ideas to keep in mind always
Thank you very much 🙂
I love this so much, and the map around 19:00 is stinkin cute
Dear Anastasia, thank you very much - Maps are so much fun :-D
This is so cool!
thank you very much
I found you through Dawn Michelle's Discord! Well-done. 🌻
Thank you very much.

Thank you Isabella! This is such a wonderful video that I am going to share and use in our homeschooling nature studies and journaling! 😊
Thanks, Serena - I am very happy to read this. Enjoy Nature Journaling with the kids.

Straight to the point - very well done!
Thank you very much, Lisa!
Excellent! I especially liked your emphasis of curiosity -- it makes all the difference.
Thanks, Pamela - you are right. Curiosity is all you need 😊 The rest is coming by itself.
