Sketching for Travel
Start your own travel journal on this short-day course.
Sketching our travel destinations is fun, purposeful, and often evokes a greater emotional memory than a photograph alone. Best of all, our memories are all in one place: the journal.
Learn some simple and easy sketching techniques to kick start your own personal travel record.
These techniques can also be applied to “Pein-Air” (in open air) sketching anywhere, including your own backyard.
You don’t need much so let’s get started!
