Due to popular demand, we are adding a second session of the Sonoran Desert Field Arts Bootcamp starting one day after the first—it will run from April 4 through lunch on Friday, April 7.
Southern Arizona in spring is magical—and southern Arizona in spring at a private ranch alongside a perennial river and a mythical wilderness is the best ever—and a rare opportunity not to be missed.
From April 4 – 7, this will be four 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.
The setting is a private ranch along Aravaipa Creek about 90 minutes north of Tucson, Arizona. These are ancestral lands of the Apache people, who used the fertile riverside valley for seasonal crops.
Your accommodations are comfortable but not high luxury—think 1970s big ranch house set in a grassy meadow, with a burbling creek running alongside; meals will be included and there is an optional van shuttle from the Tucson airport.
And new for this bootcamp—a camping option if you have your own vehicle and camp setup; there is a modern bathroom for campers. Our really low pricing reflects these options!
We’ll be able to host up to 20 participants because of the camping option, and there will be two instructors—Roseann & Jonathan Hanson. For details and to register, >CLICK HERE!<
Don’t delay — this is going to fill very quickly!
Fun videos — about one of our field arts activities, and a sneak-peek at the peaceful setting. Sound for both!
