GRAND CANYON  - Colorado River Rafting
Natural Sciences Illustrator Field Sketching.        
Canyoneers    - Grand Canyon River Trips, Flagstaff, Arizona.

​"Field sketching"     
In the tradition of exploration naturalists, we explore 280 miles of the mighty Colorado  and wander canyon trails as we raft the River. I encourage participants to  try field sketching to make observations in the   amazing landscapes that we  traverse.  And while discussing the geology, and natural history with field experts we also look at how  artists perceive  the natural world.
​
To learn more about these adventures read this   article with one of my field sketches in   the   New York Times                                     "Rafting Through the Grand Canyon in Vintage Style"   -   Daniel Jones writer and Janie Osborne photographer, July 3 2016.

Contributing Artist & Scientist. 2018 Ocean Sciences Meeting, Portland,  OR  
Ocean|Science|Art E-gallery. Organized by   AGU - ASLO - TOS
In Sea of Cortez: A Leisurely Journal of Travel and Research, co-authors Ed Ricketts (a marine scientist) and John Steinbeck (a writer) expounded on “… the knowledge that all things are one thing and that one thing is all things—plankton, a shimmering phosphorescence on the sea and the spinning planets and an expanding universe, all bound together by the elastic string of time.”
​They recommended that “it is advisable to look from the tide pool to the stars and then back to the tide pool again.” Since their collaboration was published in 1951, innumerable other connections between artists and scientists have educated and energized participants in both fields. Join us in celebrating the art in science and the science of art through collaborative works addressing the ocean sciences.

Press Release    -   ...    
And then there are scientist-artists whose art reflects both first-hand knowledge and remarkable awe from experiencing OCEAN intimately! Véronique Robigou's trips in submersibles to OCEAN's deep hydrothermal vents provide both illustrative accuracy and impressionistic memories, Amanda Levine's painting captures the ferocious energy of a marine food-web "feeding frenzy" in the Atlantic off New York's shores, and marine biologist Jenny Rock's colograph of fish eggs from the Southern Ocean near New Zealand stimulated her to question their sustainability in today's warming waters. ...
