THE SUMMER SKETCHBOOK UNSLUMP IS STARTING SOON!
This is a friendly reminder that the Summer Sketchbook Un-Slump (SSUS) begins Friday, July 19th! 

IF YOU'VE ALREADY SIGNED UP…
If you've already signed up (thank you!) I wanted to make sure you got the Week 0 email that was sent out on July 12th! If you don't see the Week 0 email (it includes the tips, the schedule, warm up exercises, and more) please check your junk / spam folder and the promotions / updates tab. If you find the emails in there please mark as not junk/spam or move the email to your primary email tab.
 
If you signed up for the SSUS before, you should automatically receive the Week 0 email and don't need to sign up again (unless you unsubscribed at some point) and if you're in the Creative Spark Newsletter, you are good to go as well!
 
 If you can't find the Week 0 email in any of your inboxes, please reply to this email with the email address you signed up with so I can double check that you're signed up and re-send it! 
 

 
IF YOU'D LIKE TO SIGN UP…
Please head over here to join! Once you sign up you will receive the Week 0 email in about 15 minutes.
 

 
IF YOU'D LIKE TO LEARN MORE…

You can find a brief description on the sign up page and a more detailed description in this blog post. Here are a few highlights:
  • This is a free 5 week email series where you will receive a prompt a week to create from
  • Each prompt will be accompanied by ideas and inspiration to help you decide how you want to interpret it
  • Creatives and artists of all ages and levels are welcome! Teens and kids are welcome to join as well!
  • You can work through the prompts in real time with me throughout the 5 weeks to build momentum and consistency. But if that timeline doesn't work for you, that's OK and you work on a schedule that is best for you.
  • My intention for SSUS is to help inspire and motivate you to create through interpreting prompts! I will not be telling you that you have to do x,y,z. Suggestions will be provided but you will have a lot of room to explore.
I can't wait to get started and hope we get to create together this summer!

PS: I recently created a sketchbook page for the prompt “urban”--here's how I interpreted it and here's a short process video! Part of my inspiration was a section I had created on my 100 Day Project. Now that it's done, I'm looking back at some of my favorites and re-creating them on a larger scale!
