SKETCHBOOK-SKOOL-BRIGHT-PAINTS.jpg

Week one of Sketchbook Skool

Michelle October 2, 2017
“Sketchbook Skool [is a] a video-based art school designed to inspire creative storytelling through illustrated journaling. ”
— Danny Gregory

I've enrolled in Imagining, one of the online courses offered by Sketchbook Skool. The goal for this course is to loosen up my imagination. I've never been good at thinking up things to draw, or drawing things from my imagination.

Uncharacteristically I am following along and completing all the exercises so far. Week One saw the creation of a new panel which somehow tied to the one drawn the day before. The exercise showed a red thread twining its way through each day's artwork. I chose, instead, for each of my panels to share the same horizon line.

I'm really enjoying this course, not least of which because @foxmwoods is doing it too.

Card making: baby steps for babies

Michelle September 27, 2017

It looked so easy when Cathy Zielski did it. She claimed to be new and fumbling so really, how hard can it be? 

Turns out, there are fish-hooks all over this idea.

  1. Messy

  2. Trashy

  3. Sticky

  4. Swapping out tools

  5. x

My buddy Toothless here, woke me up at 2.50am watching tv in the living room. He had the volume at an increasingly inconsiderate level. So i took the remote from him and turned tv off and told him to go. To. Sleep. Not on the remote this time.
