A sketchbook can be a refuge in challenging times. Its pages can be a place to capture the joys of each season, but it offers so much more than just a place to observe and keep a record.

Spring is a challenging season. It can flip-flop between beautiful warm weather and snowstorms. At the time of filming of this class, the world is in the grips of the coronavirus pandemic which has made life challenging for so many of us all over the world.

A sketchbook can be the perfect place to turn at times like this and this class is designed to help you embrace the possibilities of the blank page and find joy in the process of creating.

In this class you’ll learn a variety of techniques for creating unique sketchbook pages inspired by spring, whether you can get outside or not. Examples start simply with color mixing and swatching and build in complexity throughout the class. Students can pick and choose which techniques most appeal to them. Media includes watercolor, pen, mixed media and collage.

At the end of the class you should feel inspired to begin creating in your own sketchbook and able to welcome your own spring with joy.
