NATURE EDUCATION THROUGH EVERYDAY OBSERVATIONS
We passionately believe that genuine learning about the natural world must begin with observations using your own five senses.
At Nature Clearly, we combine our passion for observing and explaining natural history phenomena with a zeal for illustration and a unique method of presenting the information, resulting in a highly effective and enjoyable educational experience.

Whether it’s a difficult fundamental concept in biology, or “just” an interesting organism you see in your everyday life but might not know much about, we are here to talk about it!
Our unique method of presenting the information, involving real-life examples and plentiful photos and drawings, will deliver concepts in a clear, easy-to-remember form… and you will enjoy the experience along the way!

I am currently available for commissions. Contact me via our “Contact us” form for more information.
