Welcome to the first Creative Exploration guide! We started diving into the story and medicine of wild apple in the last newsletter. This week we’re going to dive deeper by connecting to apple through some sketching and writing meditations.
If you have a wild apple tree in mind you want to work with, you can do these exercises out in the field with apple. Otherwise you can use the reference photos I’ve provided below. Both are great options.
The last reference image is the image I’ve used to create the sketching demo if you’d like to follow along, or choose any of the provided images (or your own) to capture the spirit of this tree.
I would suggest watching and practicing the sketching demo first, then you can fill in the rest of the page with your writing exercise. You’ll find the audio for the writing exercise below as well.
