Sketchbook Explorations in Watercolor: Simple Studies for Creative Flow & Discovery

Welcome to my new class: Sketchbook Explorations in Watercolor: Simple Studies for Creative Flow & Discovery

This class is all about cultivating a joyful and freeing sketchbook practice using watercolor. I’ll guide students through short, simple painting prompts across a variety of subjects—landscapes, seascapes, cityscapes, and still life.

Each sketch will be intentionally approachable and bite-sized, making it easy for students to squeeze in creativity even on busy days. The goal is not perfection, but process over product—giving students the space to play, discover what subjects they enjoy most, and build a regular habit of painting without pressure.
