Want to spend more time making art, and less time hesitating? Great, me too! So let’s practice boldness with low-stakes, high-fun art making over seven prompts

We’ll develop our capacity to be daring when we’re creating, making best use of our time not through productivity hacks or doing more work in less time, but by spending more of the time set aside for our art, actually making art instead of hesitating

You’ll also learn how to:

  • Give objects form so they look 3D
  • Create atmospheric perspective, giving landscapes depth
  • Make great compositions intuitively
  • Suggest texture to give your pieces more visual interest
  • And stop agonising over every mark you make

You don’t need any fancy art supplies to take this class. I’m using kids’ art supplies – paint sticks – and basic stationary supplies like highlighter pens – as well as paint pens (like Poscas) and a brush pen. You also don’t need a lot of time to take this class – each practical exercise is designed to take less than ten minutes

You work through the prompts one per day, all in one day, or over a cadence that suits you best.

By the end of this class, you will have practiced your creative courage, creating seven bold pieces of art that range from abstract blobs to leaves, mountains, flowers and trees.

Maybe you struggle to make time for your art. Perhaps you want to be braver in how you make your art. Either way, I’ve got you.

So let’s do this – see you in class!
