Do you know what would make your holidays even better? Capturing it in a frame like this and hanging it on your wall!

If you always wanted to try travel journaling and a trip is coming up, I have the perfect class for you.

Let me take you to Bari, Italy for 4 days to show you 3 beautiful towns, eat delicious food, take photos and use the little time I have for super quick and tiny paintings to create a 40 by 40 cm frame full of memories.

In this class, you will learn how to capture your trips in my “no effort sketch journaling” style. No pencil sketch, continuous contour drawings and almost abstract, loose watercolour splashes. The results of this kind of journaling are already great but this time you will see them on the wall, in a frame, rather than tucked away on some shelf.

What you learn from this class will make you ready for your next or first travel journal but also you can use the skills to start any kind of journal with various topics. Plus, you will get to see new places in between my drawings with my commentary rather than “Learn! Learn! Learn!”

By the end of this class, you will be a travel journaler just like me.

Look, I could have sat in my attic studio and lecture you about how you can be more creative on your holidays and tell you what to do or not to do. But instead I went out there, actually did what I’m telling you to do and recorded the entire thing! So be ready for the immersive learning experience.

This class is for anyone who wants to start a travel journal or who is bored with what they are doing and wants to find a way to shake things up and loosen up their style.

No background or experience is necessary to take this class. Anyone with the willingness to create is welcome. Even if you don’t feel particularly creative at the moment, you can just watch it for the sights. You have to see Polignano A Mare! (hearts for the eyes emoji)

The class will follow the chronological order of our trip to Bari, Italy. We will go from day 1 to day 4 with 5 drawing breaks and in between them, we will sightsee.

Your class project is to create your own holiday art piece for your wall. It’s perfect if you have a trip coming up but if not, you can pretend that you are with me on this Italy trip. There are photos you can use in the resources section as reference.

Can’t wait to take you on this trip with us!

Polignano A Mare was one of the prettiest towns I have ever seen and I truly enjoyed painting little details from this holiday.
