The Artist and the Sketchbook, Online

Cultivate a regular sketchbook practice to develop new ideas, stay accountable to your creative goals, and refine the direction of your work. Explore sketching, collaging, painting, and writing, as you investigate how the personal nature of an artist's sketchbook can catapult work to the next level. During one class meeting, handmade sketchbooks are made using an array of book construction methods. You will also review the history of artists' sketchbooks and draw from the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago for inspiration.

No class on March 20th or 27th.

This class is taught by Frances Lightbound.

Registration closes at 11:59 p.m. on Monday, February 1st, 2027.
