What is Nature Sketch Crate?

Mission: Enrich people’s lives through art, nature and environmental responsibility.

Bonus: a portion of the profits are donated to an environmental organization related to the subject you are painting. You are automatically making a positive impact on the environment just by buying the box! 

This monthly watercolor & ink nature art class is for beginners; ages 7-87. (Under 12 may need adult assistance). The class can be taken anytime and anywhere.

Most art classes only address how to create art. Nature Sketch Crate not only helps you to start painting, it also helps you reconnect with nature by teaching you more about it. 

Created for beginners: As easy as an adult coloring book. 

No drawing experience needed! Just transfer the provided image by tracing it onto the watercolor paper, filling it with a few watercolor layers and finalizing it with ink lines. Guided by easy-to-follow instructions created and demonstrated by award-winning Freelance Science Illustrator, Stephanie Rozzo.

Feel better with nature and art.

Studies have shown that art and nature can reduce stress, make people happier, and improve memory and attention.

"At any skill level, making art reduces stress hormones: Cortisol lowers significantly after just 45 minutes of art creation." - Drexel University.

“… time in nature was found to have a positive effect on mood and aspects of cognitive function, including working memory, as well as a dampening effect on anxiety." -Stanford news.

What people say about Nature Sketch Crate:

"The step-by-step directions were easy to follow. As a non-artist, I felt confident."

— Betty C.

"Would recommend NSC to anyone & everyone. My daughters and I (ages 8, 6, & 4) LOVE Nature Sketch Crate! I do the tracings for our younger two, but our oldest daughter competes each project independently from start to finish. And then asks for the next crate right away!
Every month, I am blown away by the quality of each crate. The supplies (paints, paper) are beautiful. The fine attention to detail in the instructions and the animal/plant fact sheets is exquisite. I (as well as our daughters) learn while having fun and becoming artists."

-Shay K.

"It was so therapeutic! I enjoyed being outside in my backyard and trying to free paint a succulent. Doing a free painting encouraged me to relax around the idea of creating art and not needing to strive for 'perfection.'"

— Kim M.
