Sketchbooks and art journals are magical playgrounds. They are not about faultless drawings or perfect outcomes, but about messy and joyful experiments along the way to finding your own style and artistic voice. Sketchbooks are where you develop an artistic practice, not where you turn-up fully formed. They are part of the artistic journey, they are not the final destination.

Sketchbooks have helped me to incorporate art into my life. In fact I would say my use of sketchbooks has been life changing. Sketchbooks have allowed me to develop my confidence, uncover my inner artist and express myself. They were a small corner in which my creativity and art could flourish. A place to develop my skills and a springboard to a more colourful and creative life.

In this book I share all I have learned long the way, so that you too can use sketchbooks as a springboard to help your creativity flourish and thrive.

Inside the book you'll find techniques and creative exercises that incorporate mark making, watercolour, mixed media, collage, words and text, and more.

The book unpacks some of the obstacles and barriers that you may face along the way and offers wisdom and encouragement to help you decide why and how to start your sketchbook and how to develop and expand your artistic practice.

The book is packed with ideas and exercises, including:

Exploratory drawing exercises

How to utilise colour in your sketchbook

How to create dynamic and varied sketchbook pages

How to find inspiration in nature and your everyday life

Ways to mix media and art supplies

Ways to kick start your creativity

How to find and develop a process which feels personal to you
