This is the Horticulture teaching garden at Eagle Heights and one of my favorite places I get to spend time in as a student at UW Madison.
I've been long ignoring this blog because - woah - turns out taking science classes after a lifetime of studying art has been a bit of an adjustment.
20°F walks in the garden are nice for looking at plants too. In the summer they impress us with their colors. In the winter they impress us with their beautiful seeds!
I've been playing with a bullet journal for the last couple years on and off - keeping track of tasks, ideas, and making it all look very pretty. I love that its basically a way to be a graphic designer with pen and paper, which is different than my day job as a designer via computer. It just requires a little more planning. No Cmmd + Z.
I live in an urban setting but luckily for me my landlords have planted a ton of flowers in our tiny front "yard". I think its so they don't have to mow it. But its totally fine by me! We get to enjoy these very very sour strawberries. And right now there are iris', bleeding hearts, and a sea of lily of the valley about to bloom.
Spring has finally come to Wisconsin. Everything is green and I decided to take advantage of a day off and some beautiful weather to try out my watercolor pencils and colored pencils. I am really happy with how this sketch came out.
YouTube is such an amazing source of knowledge so I'd like to share my favorite gardening channels that have been such a source of inspiration for me.
These little fruits are so amazing. They are prolific. They know how to party. The flavor, to me, is very similar to pineapples. And best of all, they are extremely easy to grow.
Things are in full swing at the community garden!
In January I am focusing on value vs. hue.
