"This book is a full art course with a little humor. It takes the fear out of starting your first page and gives you that little nudge to take the first step." - BARA, Jewelry Designer & Sculptor
Art Improv 101: How to Create a Personal Art Journal focusses on creative play. This method is to art what improv is to comedy; You will make it up as you go along.
Based on 30 years in the graphic arts, artist and writer Carolyn V. Hamilton will share with you ways to play with watercolor techniques, shading with pencils, using decorative borders, and tips for drawing faces, trees, and other objects.
Her goal is to inspire you to create your own personal art journal where you can note thoughts, look inward, officially doodle, observe your life, and maybe even realize miracles. This book contains dozens of technique illustrations. No experience required!
