This workshop focuses on the sketchbook as an essential tool for collecting and developing ideas. Participants will learn about various types of sketchbooks—journals, field notebooks, travel logs, scrapbooks, and commonplace books—and explore how to bind their own. Inspired by renowned artists, we will discuss what to include in your sketchbook and how to foster creativity through mark-making, collage, writing and drawing exercises. By the end of the workshop, you’ll have five unique sketchbooks—non-adhesive, folded, glued, accordion and multi-signature—filled with sketches, notes, and reflections, all ready to enhance your art-making and develop your artistic voice.
