TRANSFORMATIONAL SKETCHBOOK

JOURNALING MASTERCLASS
SUITE

 

  • Does the thought of keeping a daily sketchbook seem daunting to you?

    Maybe you have not even tried, yet.

  • Perhaps you lack confidence, experience and don't know where to start?

    …or maybe you think you don’t have enough time?

  • Seeing others journaling on social media and reading of its mental health benefits has you yearning to try it... 

    What is stopping you?

  • You think someone is going to find your journal and see what you wrote, or judge your drawing skills... 

    Your self critic always seems to get the best of you, keeping you in the same place in your life. 

  • You haven't tried because you: "can't even draw a stick figure”. 

    ...or you think your sibling is the 'creative one' in the family.

  • You can’t imagine coming up with something interesting to put in your sketchbook every day?

    Maybe you think your life is too boring, what could you possibly journal about day after day?

  • You have a mad desire to succeed, but discouragement comes quickly. You feel that everything needs improvement: your drawing, page layouts, colors, hand lettering…

    Despite all the free tutorials you feel like you still lack a clear method that doesn't waste your time.

If any of these statements resonate with you and you're thinking, "How the heck did she get inside my head?!" then keep reading - you're in the right place, my friend :)

You've got a beautiful collection of half-filled sketchbooks, some still waiting to be filled! You get off to a good start but it just doesn't stick. You lose motivation and get stuck!

 

You've read the blogs and follow folks on social media who keep daily sketchbooks but you feel more confused than ever, trying to piece together how to do it on your own. Wrestling with limited time, loads of self-judgement, concerns about skill level, media, color...the list goes on.

 

You wish someone would just take you by the hand and guide you through each step needed to create your own daily creative journaling practice, and that you had a way you could just ask questions when you need to. 

Imagine what it will feel like when you've finally hopped off the social media time suck and started spending time with the real you, finally connecting with yourself, facing your fears, getting vulnerable and present in real time with your journal!

 

Imagine what you're going to feel like once you've been journaling for 3 months, figured out a schedule, have your favorite supplies and journaling spot and look forward to it every day!

 

Maybe you are suddenly looking for things to be grateful for and paying attention to your surroundings. Realizing how lucky you are in spite of all the chaos going on around us.

 

You get to release any angst or worries that plague you, getting them out of your head and onto the page. You can move on and let peace fill your mind and heart!

 

Your friends and family are thrilled when you tell them you've included them in your pages...they also see you becoming more creative in other areas of your life, more engaged, and excited about trying new things!    

Imagine looking forward to doing a page every day. Writing notes to yourself throughout the day, because you want to remember special moments to include on your next journal page...!

You think you may be ready to begin a sketch journaling practice, but you’ve got a lot of questions!

 

 

  • “What materials will I need?”
  • "I don't think I'll have time to do this every day."
  • “I can't even draw. How could I ever expect to do this from day one?”
  • “This seems really hard, I don’t have a plan to follow. What happens if I miss a day?”
  • "I don't have an artistic bone in my body"

I know, there can be a lot of questions and confusion if you’re starting to journal for the first time. If you don’t have a plan to follow, it can be easy to make some critical mistakes, get off track, and never find ways to keep your practice meaningful and something you look forward to doing each day. Without guidance and support, it can be difficult to make any progress at all!

 

That’s why I’ve created my step by step program, theTransformational Sketchbook Masterclass Suite.

You don’t have to be careful in this class…it’s very uninhibited. The way you demonstrate is very effective, your ideas are very personal…there is a lot of freedom in the way you teach. It’s (journaling) something I look forward to doing every day.”    - Meg S.

TRANSFORMATIONAL SKETCHBOOK JOURNALING MASTER CLASS SUITE PROGRAM

BEFORE + AFTER

 

Your life BEFORE mastering a Sketchbook Journaling Practice:

  • Frustrated, doubting yourself and your abilities.
  • Yearning to add color and creativity to your everyday life.
  • Carrying the anxieties of life and the world inside with no where to release them.
  • Feeling blah, not engaged in your own life the way you know you could be.

 

Your life AFTER mastering a Sketchbook Journaling Practice:

  • Getting to see your own personal art style evolve! It’s so exciting to watch it develop and to see your progress. You can’t see the improvement you seek unless you start...

  • Feeling the sense of accomplishment as you fan through your journal and see the words around your own life stories punctuated by colorful patterns, borders and images as you learn new techniques in each lesson.

  • Meditative, creative time. Checking in with yourself, writing/drawing out anxiety, anger, fear AND the joyful moments filled with gratitude.  

  • Feeling excited to start your day with a journal page, finding yourself gravitating towards more creativity in other areas of your life as well!  

 

What did you learn from this course? So much! Learning how to consider what each day has brought and how to record it visually. So important at a particularly isolating and often painful and frightening time. Artistically, learned how to illustrate words, use color and graphic techniques, draw faces and figures, use color to enhance/express a mood or idea. As a writer, this was especially exciting, including illustrating words, to make words and thoughts come alive.

 

What did you expect to learn or experience in this class? I hoped to gain insight into a different technique for journaling. I am a writer but ironically, have rarely written about or for myself. This provided a number of prompts and ideas from Anne’s own life and experiences that she was open to sharing.” - Carol L. 

“Journaling, I believe, is a practice that teaches us better than any other the elusive art of solitude, how to be present with our own selves, bear witness to our experience, and fully inhabitant our inner lives”. - Maria Popova

  • Anne’s Sketchbook Story

    Hear the backstory, how she got started, Anne's favorite journaling spots over the years, when she went from black and white to color in her sketchbooks (it involved a guy she went on a date with!) and so much more! 

  • Sketchbook Tools & Media: Markers, sketchbooks & more! 

    Anne shares a video review and demo of her favorite sketchbooks, pens and markers, watercolor and alcohol; from economy priced to premium brands.

  • Page Layouts and Décor + Learn to Decorate your Words  

    Learn about different ways of doing page layouts depending on your left or right brain thought style. Page decor guides, colorful and helpful handouts to assist beginners.

  • A Drawing Exercise for the Fearful

    A judgement free way to release the fear of drawing and start making images! 

  • Timeographical Activation!

    Learn how the date can activate your daily practice.

  • Identi-me (you!) + Emotion in Journaling   

    You will discover all the journaling prompts you need are within you!

    Pull it all together! Create your first journal page with Anne, incorporating all you've learned plus the help of an easy to re-use journal prompt page.

    A brain teaser of sorts, creating a list of your personal attributes, hand lettering and some wash drawing...not to mention a self-esteem builder!

  • The Grass is Greener

    Working with this idiom, you will explore the color GREEN and look at your own experiences past and present. Student examples will offer great inspiration.

  • Spaces + Places

    Discover how to draw different landscapes, cities, seascapes, etc. Create pages based on memories of places prompted by evocative words such as "crowded", "noisy", "majestic".

  • Winging It

    Wings inform the literal base of this lesson, drawing them or taking the idea a step further and working with a memory of a time in your life when you "winged it".

This journey has done so much to quiet my mind, something that was much needed. Unloading the day on the page has been cathartic and much healthier than mindless eating...the clothes exercise nudged me to organize my closet. I look forward to continuing to stretch myself to color outside my self-imposed lines, both figuratively and on paper."     - Susan H.

Used Anne Leuck's wonderful techniques and noticed that today I integrated three of my priorities, exercising the left brain, right brain and heart...” - Margaret
