Blog Post: From Riverbanks to Artwork – Drew’s Journey and the California Wildlife Conversation Deck

Drew’s latest project, the California Wildlife Conversation Deck, is a natural extension of his mission to connect people with nature. In a world where so much of life happens on screens, this deck is designed to bring people back to genuine, in-person moments and reignite a sense of wonder for the natural world. Whether you’re on a road trip, gathered around a campfire, or enjoying a cozy night in, this deck invites people of all ages to explore, reflect, and spark meaningful conversations about the world around us.

What Makes the Conversation Deck Special?

The California Wildlife Conversation Deck is more than just a game—it’s an experience. Each card features hand-drawn illustrations of California’s diverse wildlife, from majestic mountain lions to playful sea otters. But it’s not just about the art; it’s about the stories and connections that the deck inspires. The questions and prompts on each card are designed to encourage curiosity, reflection, and empathy. They invite players to share personal stories, learn about California’s ecosystems, and deepen their appreciation for the natural world.

Drew’s hope is that this deck will bring people closer through shared stories, learning, and reflections.
