Have you ever begun a journal only to abandon it after a month? Because you...

  • Couldn’t find the time?
  • Unsure that you had enough to write or draw about?
  • Afraid of making a mistake?
  • Don’t feel like you are creative?

Guess what?


I have done …all of that!

But then at a time in my life I really needed to make art.

I had three very energetic and darling little boys and no studio to work in.

I figured out how to work around my limited time, lack of focus, fear of mistakes and creative block!


Let me teach you how!



after completing the live workshop

(on ZOOM) you will…


  • Create a daily habit to “see with all your senses”, hearing your inner voice.
  • Actualize "creative thinking skills", the core curriculum, at our weekly meeting. They will give you new ways to practice fearless drawing /writing skills.
  • Feel confident in practicing a wide range of drawing/skills and suggested writing formats.
  • Build an overview, like a bird’s eye view of your life, in words & drawings.
  • Takeaway: a filled journal with your hand drawn/written marks of the 8 weeks.
  • Develop a handcrafted system to uniquely transform the path of your life.
  • Access lifetime use of this course, for your future reference!
  • A lifetime ability to intuitively incorporate creative thinking into everyday!


how it works.

  1. 1x per week for 90 minutes in the live presentation, & workshop, focused on drawing skills. We will explore creative concepts, drawing skills in preparation for the next 7 days in your mini-sessions
  2. Plan to work on your own journal independently, no more than 30 minutes each day. It helps to couple it alongside another established habit.
  3. Apply your fresh new skills of sketching/writing as a daily HABIT. You will receive daily links to instructions, written and demo videos, helpful links & resources.
  4. AND you can take it with you everywhere you go - even on vacation!
  5. Recorded videos of the weekly class will be available.


about beth


Decades ago, when I began to keep a journal, I realized the beauty I see every day was an invaluable resource for my artwork. I needed a place to incubate ideas while caring for my little ones and teaching art to elementary school children.

Those drawings and personal observations in my journals grew into a resource for images and ideas. But, I never knew the value of what I was creating until about six years ago when I had to move them from their stacked shelves. And... realized I had 140 journals!

To share the unexpected insights into my heart, mind, body, and soul from the contemplative habit of journaling, I have gathered my techniques for quickly working while trusting my marks and words. 

Now I feel it is essential to share them with you, to be the artist of your own life, in whatever medium you feel drawn to.
