I’m honored to be an instructor at this year’s Sketchbook Revival Challenge—a free, flexible event designed to help you reconnect with drawing, painting, and the joy of creating.
How it works:
- Get a sketchbook
- Sign up for free to explore techniques before April 11
https://sumi_e2026–sketchbookrevival.thrivecart.com/sbr2026-challenge-aff/
- If you enjoy it, join the challenge from April 11–21, 2026, with guided videos from 30+ artists
In my 30-minute session, I’ll introduce you to Sumi-e, the art of Japanese ink painting. You’ll learn three foundational brushstrokes and how to use them to create minimalist subjects like bamboo, cherry blossoms, birds, and Japanese maple. I’ll also cover materials and include a bonus video on painting birds in different poses.
This challenge is a beautiful opportunity to overcome creative blocks, explore new techniques, and bring more creativity and joy into your life.
I hope you’ll join us and create alongside so many inspiring artists!
