A sketchbook is a great tool for boosting one’s creativity. It can be used as a place to experiment with different media, colors, textures, compositions, techniques, and subjects. It can also be used as a travel journal, or a place to record activities from daily life. A daily sketchbook habit can be both relaxing and rewarding. In this class we will be exploring a variety of ideas for creating a sketchbook habit.
