Many of my artist friends are taking a little extra free time this summer to make a few road trips. Along with your usual snapshots wouldn’t it be nice to have a pocket sketchbook with you and spend an hour under the shade of a roadside tree sketching the colors of summer?
Take a few of these in your day bag while traveling.
Choose your favorite watercolor paper for your DIY pocket sketchbook.
It’s fun to choose decorative papers to create a theme for each little pocket sketchbook.
At the end I share a flip through of my sketches from Roosengarde in my own DIY pocket sketchbook.
Here’s my YouTube tutorial on how to make one for yourself or as a gift for a friend.
Tomorrow I’m leading an online on location watercolor workshop at another stunning garden. Join us!
