Picture your story with Nature Heart-Sketch Journaling at DelArt! Begin your unique Heart-Scape Memory Journal with quick sketch journaling at the Delaware Art Museum. This special four-hour writing and sketching (using watercolor if you choose!) journaling workshop will be in and around the Museum’s beautiful gardens. You need not be an “artist” to journal. This experience uses a bit of “nature bathing,” quiet time, and journaling in words and quick illustrations. Take a creative “heart” pause to discover and record your own story while creating from new connections between your environment, natural beauty, and YOU! We will be settling in two spots with views to jump deeper into nature to listen, write, draw, and start your own Heart Journal using pen and ink, pencils, and watercolors if you choose. Bring your own spiral-bound art book, and any familiar art supplies (pens, markers, watercolors, pencils, etc.). This is mostly outdoors, beginning and concluding in studio.

Supply List

What you need to bring:

Journal Materials: Spiral-bound small art journal (watercolor or multimedia paper is great!); any familiar art media like colored pencils, watercolors, colored markers; a fine-line black pen, pencil, eraser, and glue stick for those “pressable” items. Bring a small lid tight water container for watercolors if you choose to use wet media.

Bring your comfortable portable chair, mat, stool, to settle into during our two stops on our walk.

Bring all materials in an easy to carry bag, light backpack. Dress in light layers for sun and wind protection, and good walking/hiking shoes are strongly recommended, along with a large, brimmed hat or visor, suntan lotion, and bug spray. Please bring a filled water bottle for yourself.
