Conclusion

What You Will Learn?

  • Have you started drawing but stopped a few days later? .
  • Or find yourself filling a few pages of a sketchbook and then never opening it again? .
  • How about starting a new art practice with the new year and can’t even remember when you stopped? .
  • If this sounds like you, this class is for you! What if I told you there is an easy way! .
  • AND I FOUND IT!.
  • I’ve been doing sketch journaling for years and trying to teach everyone how to do it since 2020. In fact, my very first class for Skillshare was “Watercolor Sketch Journaling”. .
  • In this new format, I call “No Effort Sketch Journaling”, I stripped down the practice to its essential parts and removed everything that you can use as an excuse to not to continue. .
  • I DON’T HAVE TIME FOR IT! - It takes only 10 mins or less. .
  • I CAN’T DO IT EVERYDAY! - You don’t have to. .
  • I DON’T KNOW HOW TO DRAW! - You don’t need to. .
  • I DON’T KNOW HOW TO PAINT! - You don’t need to. .
  • I AM NOT TALENTED! - No talent is required. (Plus, there is no such thing as talent.).
  • I AM IMPATIENT! - You will get results straight away..
  • I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DRAW - I’ll help you with that. =).
  • No Effort Sketch Journaling is exactly how it sounds like. NO EFFORT! It’s done with minimum effort yet it does everything a sketch journal should do:.
  • - Give you a space to practice drawing/painting/hand lettering. .
  • - It helps you to capture memories. .
  • - It gives you a sense of accomplishment. .
  • - And most importantly, it helps you to get a HABIT! .
  • Turning this into a habit is the most important thing and I designed this format with this in mind. Habits are formed when there is less friction. If you wanna eat more fruit but every time eating a fruit involves digging them out of the fridge, washing, peeling, cutting… You end up not doing it. This is friction. .
  • And forming a creative habit is good for you mentally but also it’s the only thing to help you get better at your art. With this in mind, I got rid of: .
  • What we are left with is a tiny but mighty sketch journal with very artsy paintings inside. .
  • So, since you have NO EXCUSE left, I will see you inside, right? =) .
  • If you still have an excuse, please write to me directly because I have to hear this BS. =D And I promise I will try to find a solution for it..
