Discover how a simple sketchbook can become a powerful tool for self-expression, reflection, and growth.
In this live, 2-hour online workshop, artist and journaling facilitator Anne Leuck shares how to build a meaningful daily sketchbook journaling practice. Through personal storytelling, approachable exercises, and practical tools, Anne guides you step-by-step to create pages that reflect your life and deepen self-discovery.
With more than 20 years of sketchbook experience, Anne shows you how to pair words and images to capture everyday moments and process life’s ups and downs.
You learn:
- Playful, unconventional tips that make drawing fun
- Creative lettering techniques to personalize your pages
- Simple page layouts for both left- and right-brained thinkers
- Color and page décor ideas that make your journal pages vibrant and full of life
- Ways to celebrate daily moments while honoring more difficult ones
We draw and write together using prompts to generate ideas and explore techniques that quiet judgment and free your hand. You learn how to tap into your identity and emotions to uncover the prompts already living inside you.
The session includes live demos, guided exercises, dedicated time to create, and a short Q&A. By the end, you complete your first illustrated journal page using an easy-to-reuse structure you can return to again and again.
No art background is required. This workshop lays the foundation for a sustainable, lifelong creative habit—one page at a time.
