About this FieldTrip

Are you interested in learning how to sketch but find the idea of creating complex drawings intimidating? Fear not! I will teach you the basics of sketching and help you create advanced-looking sketches with ease.

My approach is all about the process of sketching, rather than stressing over the final result. I want you to have fun and enjoy the creative process of making art and I will guide you through the steps needed to create stunning sketches.

You’ll learn how to use different drawing techniques to create a variety of effects, and I’ll show you how to approach sketching in a way that encourages creativity and experimentation.

So join me for an exciting workshop and discover the joy of sketching. We can’t wait to see you there!

How to make the most of FieldTrips

The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.

Show up fully

Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.

Stay curious

Wear your beginner’s hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going! 

Celebrate your host

Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings community—just like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgrounds—a lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.

Support each other

We’re all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things.  Try “Yes! And
” in conversation.

Not vibing?

It’s 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
