Queen-Bee Premium Bundle: Brushed by Nature – Creativity, Culture, and Stewardship Through Artmaking

Lead your classroom with intention and care through the Brushed by Nature – Queen-Bee Premium Bundle, a thoughtfully curated collection of resources that brings together creativity, culture, and sustainability. This premium bundle equips teachers to guide students in exploring place, identity, and stewardship through hands-on, nature-inspired artmaking.

Students engage deeply with the natural world as they design and construct handmade brushes using found and organic materials. Inspired by the practices of Lorna Crane and local Aboriginal artists, students explore how tools, materials, and mark-making carry meaning, reflecting personal stories, cultural connections, and a respectful relationship with Country. Throughout the unit, artmaking becomes a mindful process that encourages care for the environment and thoughtful material choices.
