An inspiring creativity guide for keeping a sketchbook as an artistic practice, with techniques and sources of inspiration for experimenting, drawing, painting, and seeing the world through a colorful lens, from watercolor artist and author of The Joy of Watercolor Emma Block.
Keeping a sketchbook is a wonderfully rewarding pursuit for artists and hobbyists alike. Your sketchbook is a safe place to explore, experiment, try new things, record your progress, and sometimes mess up. Working in a sketchbook, particularly on location, is an innately mindful practice. You become completely focused on the things you are sketching or painting and fully immersed in the atmosphere of the Keeping a Creative Sketchbook, Emma Block shares her own sketchbook practice and offers inspiring artist interviews and numerous techniques and practices for beginning or transforming your own. Packed with ideas and prompts to get you started, this book helps overcome overwhelm and open a world of joyful creativity. With your sketchbook by your side, you can slow down in the present moment–tuning into the little things, enjoying the process, letting go of perfectionism, and embracing the blank page. It’s a space to discover rich new depths to your creativity and connect with your artist mindset for inner peace.
