Nature Art & Play

Nature Art & Play We offer foraging and drawing courses in the beautiful surroundings of Cornwall. Also take a look at our nature inspired artwork xx Hi! I'm Gabrielle.

I love foraging with my mate Ben, who knows all about mushrooms. With my knowledge of plants, we form a great pair :)

I am an artist, a doula, an art teacher and a lover of life! My foraging started as a hobbie, turned into a passion and is now integrated into my daily life. It enables me to be more in touch with the seasons, more in touch with my health, by tapping into ancient plant wisdom, and

teaches me to be more mindful and aware of my surroundings

I love sharing my knowledge and attending foraging courses by others, every time I learn a little more! I've been foraging for 20 years and will be foraging for the rest of my days...

I’ve always enjoyed drawing animals. Seeing one in the wild is like the best gift nature can offer you, a glimpse into the otherworldliness of wilderness, survival, instinct and a complete disregard and incomprehension of our human constructs

I’m so enjoying bringing drawing into the foraging courses. They have really become a nature immersion experience of learning, looking, tasting and sensing. I’m busy prepping for next years series of courses so keep a look out!

I’ve started incorporating my art skills into my foraging courses. At the end of the walk, we sit and do some fun exercises of observation, drawing the trees, leaves and natural shapes around us

It was a wonderful end to a nature immersion experience!

Found some lovely Chicken of the Woods the other day. It was yummy fried with some courgette from the veg patch 😋
