Fall is full of beautiful colors that can inspire art and imagination. This project encourages both! Take a walk or a hike and look for something in nature that sparks your imagination. Take a picture of what inspires you and create a story out of what you found!
This is a picture I took on my exploration! I saw these two trees and I imagined two giant legs sticking out of the ground. It took me to a magical place! I thought of a giant scouring through a hole in the ground, searching for the mischievous pixies that took his favorite music box. Looking at his legs, I wondered, “how long has that giant been in that hole looking for these pixies?” It made me smile and I had to take a picture!
 
Materials needed:
● A camera or phone
● Sketch paper
● Pencil
 
Directions:
1 - Go on a hike
2 - Take a picture with a camera or phone of something that sparks your imagination. If you don’t have a camera or a phone, you can take the sketch paper and pencil and sketch what you see.

This project is fun to create, so get inspired, be creative, and have fun!
