Keeping a Nature Journal

A richly textured, vintage-style illustration of a hand drawing in a nature journal. The journal is open to pages filled with detailed botanical sketches of leaves and flowers. Surrounding it are real leaves, a pinecone, a daisy, and torn journal pages laid out on earthy ground. In the background, a soft forest path winds through tall trees, evoking a sense of peaceful observation and connection with nature.

Keeping a Nature Journal by Clare Walker Leslie is more than a drawing guide — it’s a soulful invitation to observe, reflect, and reconnect with the living world. Filled with inspiring sketches, accessible tips, and gentle wisdom, it turns simple moments outdoors into a contemplative practice. Ideal for those seeking a meaningful, creative habit rooted in nature and self-awareness.
