Botanical Sketchbook Tour ✿ Perpetual Nature Journal in Derwent Inktense

Take a tour through my perpetual journal - a botanical nature journal inspired by the work of Lara Gastinger. In this type of nature journal, the dates are added to the top of each sketchbook page and you come back to that page each year to add a new observation. I painted all the botanical sketches in here using Derwent Inktense pencils or pans and share some of my tricks for successful botanical sketching in this medium.
