Nature Art Club
At each club meeting, we will learn to draw a new piece of nature- Birds, Trees, Insects, Landscapes, Animals, and more! I will guide students through the steps to draw something new from nature each week.

Do you nature and art? I do so I am thrilled to start this Nature Art Club! Each week we will do a new drawing inspired by nature. I will do a demonstration each week and the students will follow along as they develop their own drawing skills. We will focus on pencil drawing and colored pencils for detail and color. Here’s what we will draw for the first few weeks. After these, I will take students suggestions to determine the topic for each week. Week 1- Owls Week 2- Bears Week 3- Flowering Trees Week 4- Desert Landscapes
Learning Goals
Students will gain experience and skills in nature based drawings.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Carrie Raleigh and I am currently an Elementary Art teacher in Southern California. Previously in my career, I ran field trip programs and public programs for environmental non-profits. I also worked for my local Girl Scout council where I ran STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) programs. When I am not teaching or doing artsy things, I love to hike, read, and explore the world around me. I am a huge Harry Potter fan. My favorite artists are Frida Kahlo and Keith Haring.
I have a BA’s in Visual Art and Psychology. I also have a Master’s in Education in Curriculum and Instruction. A highlight of my career was being selected by the California State Superintendent of Schools to be part of a taskforce on Environmental Literacy. I worked with a select group of educators from around the state to make recommendations to increase Environmental Education opportunities throughout California.
I love to share my passion for the outdoors and the arts with others. Education should be all about exploring the opportunities our world has to offer and finding new ways to look at the world around you. I look forward to seeing you for some fun classes on watercolor painting, 3D sculpture, drawing, nature journaling, composting, and wildlife.
I am happy to schedule any of my one time classes as a scout meeting, birthday party, or friend group experience! Let me know if you are interested. Reviews
