Starting Your Creative Process - From Sketchbook to Authentic Collection

Class Description:

Whether you’re just starting out or looking to refresh your approach, this course will guide you through the essential stages of developing your own authentic body of work.

We’ll begin by learning how to collect and record visual ideas in your sketchbook — the heart of your creative process. You’ll explore mark making, collage, and life drawing, while experimenting with colour and composition.

As we go, you’ll start to group your artworks and sketches in a way that naturally leads towards a cohesive collection.

Throughout the process, you’ll draw inspiration from artists and your surroundings, discovering how to stay open, curious, and connected to your visual voice.

This class is all about play, process, and personal expression — with plenty of space to explore, make mistakes, and discover what makes your work uniquely yours.
