I have found that the best moments are often those moments in the in between. Little amounts of time where I can be present if I choose. It is in those moments that a book slowly gets read over a month, I capture my thoughts through writing, I have the face to face conversations, I sit with my face to the sun and my feet in the grass, I truly listen to an album, I spend a few moments in the garden or I grab my sketchbook and capture what is right in front of me.
In this session I shared one of the biggest creative practices that made a huge impact on my art, creativity in general, pure joy in making, and being present. In this two hour edited Zoom art workshop I shared one of my sketchbook practices, how I quickly capture the world around me, how I create layers with watercolors, water soluble markers and pastels. The live Zoom was also recorded with a high-definition camera and has been edited together so that you can follow along in crystal clear video as I demonstrate the techniques listed below. A bonus video was also added after the workshop to share two contour sketches with loose color blocking with watercolors.
