As promised, I am writing about the art challenge that Katie Moody held in celebration for the publication of her new book, Sketchbook Joy. It’s such a pretty book and gives tons of ideas on how to fill those pesky blank pages.
I was able to finish this challenge, perhaps with some struggle, but I’m glad I did it. I found art to be exciting, meditative, and healing. I also can just doodle and who knows what discoveries that will lead to.
I found that I have really enjoyed playing with mixed media in my sketchbook. I love the different textures and how layering the different media on top of each other makes interesting shapes and colors. I look forward to playing in my sketchbook more often.
