Overview
  • Do you want to get back into drawing? Better, would you like to find the motivation to sketch everyday? In this class, I will guide you in setting up the right habits to get back to your pencils.

    Hi, I’m Simon. I’m a content creator and digital illustrator. I also work full-time in corporate communications and I love it.

    Drawing is my first love. I remember doodling for hours every day as a child with the rage to master perspective, proportions, shading etc. Then life got in the way, it got busier and I started neglecting my creative side. Sounds familiar?

    I’ve heard this story from many friends who are all leading busy lives as professionals and/or as parents of young children. That’s why I’ve created this class.

    In this fun and inspiring class, I will share with you my personal story tips on how to get out of a creative rut that lasted a few years in my case.

    Who is this class for?

    - Anyone who leads busy lives and can set 5 min every day to draw

    What material do I need to get started?

    I’m a firm believer in using tools that both inspire you and fit within your budget. In this class, you can use any art medium you are comfortable with, including:

    • Traditional art media (i.e. pencil, watercolour, gouache etc.) 
    • Digital art media (i.e. photography, photoshop, illustrator, procreate etc.)

    In addition, you will learn from concrete examples of my own personal journey and how I was able to launch my 100 days of happiness project online. This class is a great initial step towards awakening your inner artist and falling in love with drawing all over again.

    What can I expect from this class?

    In this class, we will set the right foundations to get you to:

    • Re-discover your creative side
    • Make drawing part of your daily routine
    • Gain confidence as an artist

    By the end, you will have completed a 3-step project that consists of:

    • Finding inspiration
    • Getting started
    • Being accountable

    These engaging projects will help you to explore your creative style and develop a habit of drawing everyday.
