A Walk in the Forest

Drawing Impulses

This time there are again two tasks connected with each other. For this I ask you to go out into nature. Go for a walk. With open eyes. The first task is to look for leaves and other parts of plants from meadows or the wayside, which you can take home with you to press them. They can be grasses, leaves or delicate flowers, just not plants that are too thick. Lay these leaves flat between sheets of newspaper or kitchen rolls, they absorb the moisture particularly well. The leaves should not touch each other, leave plenty of room between them. When you have prepared all the collected plants in this way, weigh them down with books or other heavy objects so that they are flattened. This will take a few days.
