Get ready for a new Pocket Sketching® class with world-renowned painting and sketching artist Kath Macaulay, inspired by her PBS feature.This is the perfect technique for travel journaling, hiking, biking, sauntering, sitting in a café or the airport. Capture what you think you see in 25 minutes or less using a water soluble pen, a 4 x 6 inch pad of paper and a small paint set. Ideal for the timid beginner to paint fearlessly in public, and the advanced artist who wants minimal equipment. Whether you're new to sketching or returning to your practice, this is a beautiful way to build a creative habit that travels with you. See you in the Studio for this series!
