Eleanor Chaney is a freelance artist and educator. She is also the founder and creative director of The Library of Nature, an online resource for children. In this episode, Eleanor and I discuss how her experience as a contemporary artist has informed her approach to art, nature, teaching, and learning. We also talk about Eleanor's exquisite paper sculptures, her enthusiasm for natural history books, and how she secured enough funding to launch her project. LINKSEleanor's websiteSign up for Eleanor's free five-day mini-courseFacebookInstagramYouTubeThe Library Of Nature:Library of Nature WebsiteLibrary of Nature on FacebookLibrary of Nature on InstagramSpecial ThanksJanice Benson for supporting Eleanor with her application for The Library Of Nature; Neil Mather for his help and support on the project, and Tullie House Museum and Gallery for their support on Eleanor's recent Hidden Natural Histories project. Theme music for the podcast is provided by:Jahzzar, So Far So Close, CC By 4.0 US (Episode 16 - onward)
