Introductory 6 Sessions
6 Sessions How are our notebooks extensions of ourselves? Combining generative exercises, workshops, and notable examples, we'll investigate the relationship between writers/artists and their notebooks, and ask how our notebooks can feed our creative work and even be the creative work itself. We'll explore what draws us to the notebooks of others, and touch on written/illustrated correspondence, as well as relevant readings. Expect to investigate outside your comfort zone, and to gain inspiration and insight into your creative practice.
