Artist Sketchbook of Nature: Sonoran Sprout

A little Opuntia littoralis (prickly pear cactus) seedling takes root in the desert.

About this Nature Art Journal

Although it is getting more difficult to do in an increasingly crowded and noisy world, I try to indulge my passion for finding quiet natural spaces and drawing the little things of nature whenever possible. And I share some of the sketches of the flora and fauna I encounter from time to time here. However, the purpose of this art journal isn’t to necessarily showcase my work, but rather to inspire you to grab a sketchbook and seek out a quiet spot outdoors and fall in love with the beauty of the little things of nature. Be it in your backyard, a national park, or in the wilderness somewhere, go quietly and respectfully and discover, document, appreciate, and advocate for the vanishing natural world. Know nature. Learn to be still.
