Know Stories: Travel Journaling Workshop

Learn to record your travels by sketching your experience. Beginners welcome!

Registration is required.

The best memories of your vacation are not the things you bought or even the photos you took but the art work in your sketchbook. By slowing down and drawing your surroundings you will take in more and remember more of what is going on around you than a simple photo will ever convey. The first steps in creating that amazing sketchbook is getting started. Over coming the fear of sketching in public is a leap. Realizing that observers are in awe of what you are doing is huge.

We will cover overcoming the fear and inner critic that likes to hold us back from sketching in public or even making a mark on the first page! Then we will go over materials, styles, techniques for travel journaling. Wrap up will include choosing subjects that speak to you and that are memorable along with adding in text to round out your journal.
