Take A Class: From Ideas to Artwork: Keeping and Using a Sketchbook-Journal

I’m super excited to be teaching a new 11-week class this Fall at the Lawrence Arts Center called From Ideas to Artwork: Keeping and Using a Sketchbook-Journal. Registration is now open; the first class is the evening of Sept. 10, 2024!

 

We’ll use a sketchbook-journal to draw, write, collect, and reflect, using inspiration from nature, culture, and our inner worlds for making art in any media. (All levels welcome; some walking). — LAC catalog

 

In this class we’ll engage in all manner of sketchbook-journaling processes towards looking at the world through fresh eyes, the eyes of an artist. We’ll engage a variety of exercises towards finding inspiration from the natural world, the built environment, cultural artifacts and events, and our own inner landscape of memory and imagination. While we’ll mostly meet in the arts center building, we’ll take a few walking excursions from the arts center and may meet once at the public library.

 

This is a class I loved teaching 15 years ago and have reworked and expanded it to be an 11-week class! Classes meet Tuesday evenings, 6:30-8:30 pm, beginning Sept. 10.

 

Sign up online or in person at the Lawrence Arts Center (940 New Hampshire, Lawrence, KS). Message me with any questions, and do inquire at the arts center about senior discounts and financial aid, if needed.

 

I hope you’ll sign up soon and join me for this inspiration-gathering adventure!
