The relationship between nature and art is a unique and deeply human experience. As an artist and craftsman, I find endless inspiration in nature and in earth skills. This class combines artistry and survival skills in a way that is fun, inspiring and founded in thousands of years development and practice. Students will learn to find materials, use tools, make baskets, make paints and pens, solve challenges, wildcraft medicine and hone survival skills like fire making and carving.
Our small groups encourage working in community while also gaining independent skills. Our goal is always to help our students better understand the natural world, themselves and each other.
