Have you always thought that it would be fun to maintain a sketchbook journal?  Whether you are traveling around the globe or making observations in your own backyard, journaling is a wonderful way to combine the joys of drawing with your experiences in life.  If you think that you can’t draw, journaling is a wonderful way to learn that you can.  There are many ways to make your sketchbook journal a personal and creative experience.  We’ll be learning the methods and materials for “quick” sketches, long sketches, what to focus on while you sketch, how to add color, how to personalize your sketchbook, and how to keep it all compact and travel ready.  First class in studio; following three sessions on location.

Materials list: A small sketchbook (5.5 X 8.5”), an HB or #2 pencil, a fine-tipped permanent black pen, a light (1-3 value) grey and a medium (about 5 value) grey felt tipped pen (Tombow N65 & N95 waterbased, Faber-Castell Pitt Brush Tip permanent, or Copic sketch marker, warm or cool grey, all work well.)
