A Perpetual Journal Practice

Building a Connection with Nature through Art
An inspiring guide to keeping a nature-focused perpetual art journal that will foster a stronger connection to the natural world.

Accept this invitation to connect with nature and yourself and create a perpetual art journal layered with observations of nature through the inevitable passage of time.

Botanical artist Lara Call Gastinger has made it her mission to teach artists and nature lovers worldwide how to keep a nature-focused perpetual art journal, holding sold out workshops and classes in person, as well as going live on Instagram every Monday morning to inspire and guide the efforts of her devoted followers and practicing artists of all skill levels. Now through this gorgeous, encouraging book, with a thoughtful foreword by trusted and beloved author and ecologist Doug Tallamy, Lara guides readers, nature lovers, and artists through this rich and mindful practice, further illuminated by a breathtaking, up-close-and-personal look into 52 of her own full-page journal spreads, lovingly built over many years.

From how to number each page spread in a fresh, blank journal, to tips on bringing those blank pages to life, to soothing the concerns of those who are unsure they can connect in such a way with their natural environments or their own power of expression, A Perpetual Journal Practice is a powerful book for naturalists seeking a deepened and more personal understanding of nature, artists seeking to improve their skills, and those seeking to heal and grow in all the green spaces.
