Building a Relationship with Your Sketchbook

Workshop: Building a Relationship with Your Sketchbook

Join artist and illustrator Deepti Sunder for a workshop on unlocking the power of a sketchbook. Drawing in sketchbooks regularly, Deepti has found them to be an integral tool for play and experimentation in her creative process.

In this workshop, we will use simple techniques to help you build a connection and relationship with the practice of drawing, making it comfortable, easy and fun. Often, a primary challenge is figuring out what & how to draw. These tried and tested techniques will address this, help build a habit around drawing, and enable you to explore and develop your own individual style.

Key areas covered:

• Simple ways to build a regular drawing practice
• How to discover and build your visual vocabulary through drawing exercises
• How to continue to grow your creative practice through shared prompts

What you'll experience:

• Slowing down and creating in a beautiful, calm space
• One-on-one interaction & guidance from the artist
• Deepti’s sketchbook journey from where it started and how it has evolved over time
• Approachable techniques to get started without fear
• Exploring techniques like mark making, line drawing, hatching & shading using different materials (graphite, ink, colour pencil)
• How to pick a cohesive colour palette
• Step-by-step exercise of composing a 3-colour sketchbook spread

Good to know:

• Questions during the workshop are always welcome and very much encouraged!
