Join me for a trip of a lifetime to a private camp in Baja to see the world-renowned gray whales. We will spend three days and two nights camping on the shores of magical Magdalena Bay, with daily small-boat trips to join the whales and other sea mammals and birds, then we’ll spend a full day off Loreto, on the Sea of Cortez side, snorkeling (and journaling!) with sea lions and other wildlife of Isla Coronado.

I’ll also be offering an optional one-day extension at the end to head into the interior cañons to view 6,000-year-old rock art and taste local wines in the shade of ancient fig trees at a Spanish mission site (includes hotel in Loreto).

This will be five-plus days of pure immersion in field arts: nature journaling, field sketching and watercolor, animal tracking, birdwatching, reading the weather, using field optics, found pigments and inks, and much more. I’ll also supply everyone with Rite In the Rain journals / paper and pens, and underwater writing slates so we can journal in the boats and while snorkeling!

Imagine the luxury of doing nothing but exploring wild nature and journaling in a cohort of like-minded fellow journalers . . . and with customized one-on-one feedback and skills-specific tutoring throughout the whole experience.

The Field Arts Boot Camp is suitable for beginners to advanced journalers, as your Boot Camp experience is tailored to your appropriate level. Nurturing, inquisitive, and expansive.

No excuses. Just pure nature journaling growth and mindset.
