Welcome to Fill a Sketchbook: People Edition. Fill A Sketchbook is a creative sketchbook play class series for all art lovers to help you get more acquainted with working with a sketchbook. This class is focused on drawing people and characters in our sketchbooks.

WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?:

This class is perfect for anyone who loves to play and explore in their sketchbook with traditional media but kind of feels lost on what to do with a sketchbook. We will be exploring different ways of developing people and exaggerating features to make compelling and fun characters.

This class is both great for complete art beginners and hopefully also a big boost of inspiration for artists that have been working with a sketchbook for awhile.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

Supplies you will need to create the class project:

A sketchbook

Art supplies such as, colored pencils, paints, brush pens, paint pens, soft pastels, oil pastels, neocolors, graphite pencils, pens, etc. Whatever you have is great or treat yourself to a handful of new things to get excited about art making.

If using paint, water, palette and paint brushes.

A rag for cleanup.
