How to make a wild art masterpiece

You can create your artwork while out on a walk – clear a little area on the ground or find a flat surface like a tree stump, or make your artwork on a beach. If you prefer, you can collect items as you walk and take them home with you instead. Avoid picking flowers, leaves or grasses – there will be plenty of items for you to find that have fallen to the ground. Hunt for seed pods, feathers, sticks, leaves and stones. Arrange your items in any pattern you like – or use a ‘species on the edge’ as inspiration!
