Why I Love Sketchbooks and How I Use Them in My Art Practice — My Giant Strawberry: Creative Joy, Watercolor Art and Garden Magic
My sketchbooks are dear to me, even the failed pages. Through my sketchbook practice I developed my skills as an artist and I developed and strengthened my voice. Nothing can improve your art-making and jolt your inspiration like a daily art-making habit. Avoiding drawing for so many years meant I.
Joy filled botanical and nature-inspired watercolors by artist, teacher and writer Anne Butera.
