Do you struggle to find time to sketch during a busy working week?

Between work, family, commuting and everything else life throws at you, it can be difficult to find even a few minutes to sit down and sketch or journal.

Sketching On The Go is a 5-day challenge designed to motivate and inspire you to find those small pockets of time and fit quick sketching and journaling into your busy working life.

Over 5 days, I’ll show you how to make the most of the spare moments that already exist in your day. Using just a small sketchbook and a pen, we’ll explore how you can sketch and journal while waiting for transport, during a coffee break, sitting in the car during a pickup, or simply enjoying a few quiet minutes between tasks.

Each day, I’ll share simple tips, ideas and reflections that you can put into practice with a quick sketch or journal entry in a vlog-style format!

The goal isn’t to create finished artwork. It’s about showing up, keeping your hand moving, capturing your thoughts and building a sustainable daily creative habit - even when you don’t have much time.

By the end of the 5 days, you’ll have completed at least five short sketching sessions and discovered how easy it can be to make creativity part of your everyday routine.

In this class, you’ll learn how to:

Find opportunities to sketch during a busy day
Build a daily sketching and journaling habit using short sessions
Use pocket sketchbooks and simple supplies to stay prepared
Combine quick sketches with thought journaling
Make use of waiting time and other small gaps in your routine
Take the pressure off creating “perfect” artwork
Keep your sketching habit going beyond the 5-day challenge

This class is perfect if you’ve always wanted to sketch more regularly but struggle to find the time. You don’t need an hour, a dedicated workspace or lots of art supplies - just a sketchbook, a pen and a willingness to make the most of the time you already have.

If you’ve taken my Pocket Pages and Sketchbook Journaling classes, then this class is the perfect next step to build momentum and maintain your daily sketching habit.

Haven’t watched the previous classes yet? No problem! Start here, then follow up with those classes afterwards for more inspiration, ideas and ways to develop your sketching and journaling practice.

Excited? Then grab your favourite sketchbook and pen, and let’s start our 5-Day Challenge: Sketching On The Go!

I can’t wait to see what you create!
