Sketchbook Magic: Start and Feed a Daily Art Practice

September 22, 2015 by riasharon

Sketchbook-blog

I was invited to teach a class on Skillshare. So for the last month, I’ve poured my heart into creating Sketchbook Magic, an experience for you my friends who yearn to come alive with a creative pursuit, to feel paint on your fingertips, to experience the unparalleled delight of making something.

This class was born out of my commitment to myself to make art every day. For me, art is self-care… more than a long bath or a day at the spa. Yes, life is busy!

Yet, this “busy-ness” is the very reason that it’s essential for me to do this simple thing for ME! If I add up all the hours of the day I devote to what it takes to keep life humming along, including taking care of other people or doing things for other people, it seemed rather ridiculous and awful to not be able to commit to 10 minutes on something that is simple, pure JOY.

In this class, I share my secret tips for making time and space for art while busy with my job and my kids and my relationships and… my life! ;P

If you are ready to claim some me-time, self-care, join us. It’s self-paced, it’s 10-min a day for 5 days. No previous art experience required! Just an openness to fun and a little magic.

This link gets you a FREE month of Premium Membership on Skillshare for access to my class and unlimited access to hundreds of other awesome online classes.

A little about me

I have an undergraduate degree in art. By day, I work in higher ed and in my free time I'm currently putting myself through DIY grad school.

I teach classes on creativity and inspiration on Skillshare. I occasionally share my original paintings on Etsy and fine art prints on Minted. I've also been known to make puppy portraits.
