Do you love the idea of exploring your creativity in a sketchbook?
Feeling inspired,
Full of ideas,
Confident to get started,
Not worried about mistakes
Just the freedom to show up, experiment, have fun and play?

If you would like to tap into some of that creative energy for yourself, here’s some exciting news. The 6th annual Sketchbook Revival Online Workshop is happening really soon. Already it’s helped tens of thousands of participants feel more creatively empowered to fill up their sketchbook pages, have fun experimenting with their art supplies and develop meaningful creative practices that become an important part of their every day.

So whether you’re new to the idea of a creative practice, have been wanting to get back to your creativity, or have been at it for years, the workshop will meet you where you’re at to invigorate your creativity.

This year for the first time, there’s also a special focus on the topic of color. That means that during the sessions myself and the other featured artists will not only be sharing some of our favorite approaches to creating in a sketchbook, but also how we like to incorporate color into what we do.

I’m looking forward to being part of it and it would be fun for you to join me. If you’d like to sign up you can register for free.

During the workshop, the positive impact of so many creatives coming together in the spirit of discovery and renewal can be felt across the internet. To give you an idea of how wide-reaching the event has become, there have been 100,000+ sign ups over the last 5 years!

There are 25+ workshop sessions, each one led by a different featured artist with their own unique background. Together we make up an inspiring group of accomplished artists, authors, illustrators, designers, educators, painters, art therapists, and creativity coaches (to name a few). We’re all excited to share some of our best creative tips and ideas with you. 

We’ll have fun filling up our sketchbook pages with everything from drawing and painting, to collage and mixed media, to stitching and printing so we can loosen up, develop our imaginations, practice our observation skills, express our emotions, tap into our intuition (and so much more), while also learning about color.

For example, in my session we are going to ___________________________________________.

It’s really easy to participate. Since the workshop is online you can watch the sessions from the comfort of your home, or anywhere else in the world you might be. In other words, you get to fit the workshop into your own schedule and make it work for you. The best part of all is that it’s completely free. You can sign up and access all of the content without spending a penny!

Can’t you picture it now, how much fun it will be? Spending quality time immersed in your sketchbook, happily creating while exploring color?
