The Garry Oaks Preserve is an easy walk from the school. From the beginning of May many classes spent time making observations there.
We were not the only ones. A couple of biologists were also working in the field, flagging and mapping rare flowers that enjoy this particular ecosystem. We met them a few times. They showed us their field books and we shared ours.
Since the pen is water soluable, we used small brushes to manipulate the ink and create tonal washes. Sketches capture the sensory information and save it for further reflection. They become the raw material for studio explorations.
