About
Get the drawing confidence to build a daily sketchbook practice in order to increase your focus, heighten your observation and appreciation of your world, and build a foundation for creative inspiration.
This course is designed to help you build a practice of drawing and keeping a sketchbook. The first session will focus on working with lines. The second session will focus on shapes.
You'll learn key drawing skills to use lines and shapes to capture your world in a sketchbook and specific skills to overcome the mental blocks that often interfere with drawing. You'll explore creative ways to build a sketchbook that emphasizes observing your world and enhancing your attention, awareness, and creativity while improving your ability to draw from observation. Learn how artists have used sketchbooks as the foundation for their ideas.
