Do you want a simple, go-to painting practice that helps you loosen up, explore color, and discover new ideas — in just 15 minutes?

In The 15-Minute Sketchbook Warm-Up: A Simple Practice for Creative Discovery, you’ll learn an easy, repeatable sketchbook exercise that helps you start painting without overthinking — and uncover beautiful color combinations along the way.

We’ll begin by choosing just three colors and creating a page of playful swatches and mixes. Then, using those same colors, you’ll paint a quick, loose sketchbook piece — in this class, I’ll demonstrate a relaxed floral — to explore how those colors come to life together.

This is a no-pressure, no-fuss practice you can return to anytime you feel stuck, tight, or unsure where to begin.

What You’ll Learn:
• How to create a simple 3-color palette for endless variation
• How to mix and explore color in a playful, low-pressure way
• How to use a sketchbook warm-up to loosen your painting style
• How to quickly create a small, expressive painting using limited colors
• How to build creative momentum through a simple, repeatable practice
• How to approach painting with curiosity instead of perfection

Who This Class Is For:
Perfect for beginners and experienced artists alike who want to:
• develop a simple, consistent creative habit
• loosen up their painting style
• explore color combinations in an intuitive way
• overcome creative blocks and blank page anxiety
• enjoy a quick, joyful sketchbook practice

If you’ve ever felt stuck, tight, or unsure where to start — this simple warm-up can become your favorite way back into painting.

And if you enjoy this approach, you’ll find many more in-depth classes on florals, landscapes, abstracts and sketchbook painting here on my Skillshare profile where we take these ideas further.
