John Muir Laws: The Nature Journaling Workshop, 7/6/20
Author, artist and naturalist John Muir Laws (Note: this webinar was about 60 minutes, then John answered questions about creating a cross section illustration and deciding on a journal page layout. He workshopped the answers live with drawings and discussion, which was interesting and entertaining. He also spent time describing neuroplasticity and how journaling helps the brain. Thus, the entire recording is 100 minutes. Enjoy some or all!)
