Earth Art


Walking outside on trails has become the only thing many of us do during our time off these days. Even a walk on the neighborhood can be the highlight of someone's day!

Why not make it even more amazing by leaving behind a piece of Earth art?

Earth art is art that is temporary, like an installation, and that works with natural materials in your environment to create works of art.

This art form typically focuses on form while incorporating things like color, pattern, texture, and balance to create aesthetically pleasing structures. Plus it’s a great way to get outside to enjoy art and nature all at once!

Make sure to take photos of your process, and not only a final photo.

Check out the video below to see the work of Andy Goldsworthy as a source of inspiration. He is an internationally accomplished Earth artist who’s pieces are environmentally and visually impressive!
