Welcome back to the series: Improve your wellbeing by sketching & writing on a daily basis! If you joined my previous classes on building a daily sketchbook habit through sketchbook journaling and everyday pages, you’ve already taken huge meaningful steps toward nurturing your creativity every single day and building that daily habit to improve your wellbeing.

Now it’s time for the next step in strengthening that habit - and this time, we’re going small!

Pocket Pages: A 7-Day Mini Sketchbook Challenge is designed as a natural extension of your existing practice. It deepens your routine without adding pressure, and it gives you a playful, portable tool to keep your creativity alive even on your busiest days.

But before we begin, let me be clear:

This is not a replacement for your main sketchbook journaling or everyday pages.
Your larger sketchbooks are still your main creative home. This challenge simply adds a helpful companion - a tiny window of opportunity to make sure you stay consistent, even when life gets hectic.

In this class, we’ll focus on quick, intuitive daily sessions, simple thought-journal moments, small doodles, and spontaneous sketches of whatever surrounds you.

No researching a topic, no planning a full spread, no multi-day process - just 7 days of mini spreads, each one designed to take only 10 minutes of your time.

This short challenge will help you:

stay connected to your creative routine
remove pressure and perfectionism
make art anywhere, anytime
and rediscover the joy of simple, everyday writing & sketching on a regular basis which will warm you up to continue the habit of sketchbook journaling and creating everyday pages.

To help you build this new habit, this class is structured as a 7-day challenge.

We’ll start the class by:

Talking through the benefits of going small!
Looking at the supplies you need to quickly get started

And then then you’ll watch me do the complete challenge for 7 days and see how I manage to fit in quick 10-minute sessions in my busy lifestyle – don’t worry these are all sped up videos for you to enjoy!

Once you’ve watched all the lesson videos, you’ll be ready and inspired to complete 7 tiny spreads, each one capturing a moment, an object, a feeling, or something you observed in your day.

By the end of this 7-day challenge, you’ll have a collection of charming, gorgeous, mini spreads - and a new tool to keep your creative momentum going on even the busiest days.

And that’s it - ready to start your pocket pages challenge? Then what you waiting for, move those big sketchbooks out of the way for now, grab yourself a nice drink, get yourself a nice treat, sit back, relax and let’s get started with the class.
