Explorer Series: Drawing Off the Land – Willow Charcoals

Connect with the region in a different way: learn to make willow charcoal drawing sticks and sketch the surrounding landscape with them as we explore local trails.

Local artist Crystalynn Tarr from Rendered Earth Studio creates her own paint and drawing sticks by foraging for them. On this adventure, she'll share with us how she makes charcoal sticks from willows and her passion for the local plants and wildlife that inspire her art.
