This course is very thorough. The details that may otherwise be overlooked while planning are explained. The presenter has knowledge of the subject and shares her experience.

Claudia Giomi

I have been teaching one on one crafts for a few years now but there are details provided in this course that I would have never thought of. Great course! I highly recommend it.

Hi there, I’m Susan

Sketchbook mentor, art shop raider and pencil hoarder

When I’m not teaching, running my pottery cafe in Woking, writing books about sketching, or talking about all things creative, I’m busy being a mama to my very strong-willed daughter, dancing Salsa, practicing yoga, or sewing my own (often lovely, occasionally terrible) clothes. 

So, believe me when I say I get it - life’s full-on busy! It’s why my own creativity has fluctuated over the years. And it’s what inspired me to create this space for you. So that amid life's beautiful, messy chaos, your sketchbook practice remains as easy, accessible, and constant as possible. 

Let’s keep it simple. Let’s just sketch for the love of sketching, shall we?
