ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Did you ever wonder where artists get inspiration for their work?
Sketchbooks have been a tool used by artists for many years to record thoughts, images, and ideas. In this workshop you will learn how to make a personal sketchbook to record your own creative ideas.
Students will learn the basic elements that go into making a sketchbook, including paper choice, binding, and embellishments. Participants will also create a travel tin to carry sketching tools. When your book is complete, we will take it outside and do a simple sketching exercise to start you on your own creative journey.
This workshop is presented in connection with the exhibition, A Journey in Color and Line: Drawing the Metroplex, which will be on view at the center from May 7 to June 4, 2022.
