There are some amazing online sketchbooks that will inspire and give you great ideas about how to extend your work. Study the artwork of these naturalists and artists. Learn by copying their drawings and asking yourself, "how do they do that?" What tricks will they teach you? Let me know of other nature sketchers that the world should know about.

Hi there! Thank you for adding my blog into the list of inspiring nature artists… It is a big pleasure for me since 2 years ago I spent a few days in Yosemite National Park and bought the Sierra Nevada Field Guide because I loved the illustrations..
Thanks again
Matteo
Your work is inspiring and I am delighted to share it.
Hi John
Thanks very much for adding the link to my blog in your list of inspiring nature artists.

Stuart
I have learned a lot by studying your style. I especially appreciate that you observe insects, plants, clouds, and more. You are a terrific naturalist.
Jack. Thanks for these great resources. Your work continues to inspire my family and me to be a better stewarts of our environment. I discovered another artist and environmentalist out of the Pacific Northwest. Her name is Maria Coryell-Martin. She can be found at expeditionaryart.com She has great ideas for compact field art kits. And she sells them on her website. Keep up the great work and hope to bump into you out in the field.
