Sketches from nature

Posted by adrianaburgos2014

I grew up in Costa Rica, a country with great biodiversity. My father was an agronomist and as a child I lived in a research center in a beautiful tropical valley. I spent a lot of time outside and have always been quite the environmentalist.

It should come as no surprise that as an adult I enjoy camping and love sketching from nature when I have a chance. Drawing from nature on site is a perfect way to connect with a specific place.

Georgia’s natural resources are inspiring as well. Here are a couple of my sketches from a recent trip to Magnolia Springs State Park (one of our favorite spots to camp in). These were done with sepia copic liner.
