Activity Steps:
-
Bring a camera with you and go outside.
-
Find something that you would like to work with (stones/ sticks/ flowers/ grass/ mud)
-
Pick a spot to place your creation and let it out ^_^.
-
If you are having a hard time creating something, you can start off making a shape with the materials you collected.
-
-
After you have made your nature art piece take a picture of it and then walk away.
-
Letting go of your artwork is the best part of the experience of creating because you are freely allowing anyone else the opportunity to stumble upon your art. Have fun!

I hope you get to enjoy the activity! I made this heart with the pedals knocked off by the rain. In the moment I thought oh pretty pink pedals and look I have a ton of these brown thingies (which I now know are called catkins 😉 ). lol

I love him! I used to have a really nice book of his, but I gave it to someone. I have seen videos of him on public tv. I notice you wear Keen hiking boots. Me too, haha. i knew you were a kindred spirit when I saw the camera by your boots. Thanks for coming to my site. I will be back here.

I had an immediate connection to Andy Goldsworthy lol. Yep, I love my hiking boots, they are my first pair. I stumbled upon your site though another blog and when I read your post: https://marybmaulsby.wordpress.com/2015/06/20/ponderosa-pine-speaks-2/ , I knew you too were a kindred spirit 😉 . Thank you for following my blog and sharing your love of Andy’s work. I look forward to more of your blog posts as well ^_^ .
