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.
