I'm so honored to once again be a guest instructor for Everything Art Ltd's year-long journey through the Seasons! Can you guess from the photo which season and topic I will be exploring?

47 lessons. 47 finished pieces. One unforgettable year.

Every week, a complete guided project - layering, collage, painting, texture, mark-making, mixed media of every kind - each led by one of your 40 teachers, start to finish. And every single lesson is brand new - filmed especially for this edition, never recycled from past years. And because every teacher brings a completely different style - bold and bright, quiet and layered, whimsical, expressive - you'll try them all and find the one that feels like yours. That adds up to well over 40 hours of guided teaching. And all levels are truly welcome here - plenty of Adventurers are practising artists who come back year after year for the range, the push, and the company.

Join me over on Jeanne Oliver’s Creative Network for journey into the world of Urban Sketching.

I have been keeping journals of my travels for nearly two decades and have learned to capture the soul of place through my sketchbooks and journaling - something that photographs can’t quite provide. 

In this course, I will teach you the basics of Urban Sketching and how to use minimal supplies to guide you through choosing a location and composing a scene that excites you. Learn to capture the energy of a place with expressive and loose line drawings without spending excessive amounts of time on them.  I will also teach you to illustrate with colors and values using a variety of mediums that are easy to travel with like watercolors, colored pencils and more! 

This course will make you want to keep your sketchbook handy wherever you go so you won’t miss a single memory, not only in your travels but in your daily life.
