Use intuitive mark-making as part of your daily sketchbook practice.

Today’s video is all about intuitive mark-making. Placing ink and water on the paper, spreading it around to see what happens, and noticing what you like and what you don’t.

As the promise of autumn begins, it reminds me of a harvest. A farmer gathering wheat separates the edible seeds from the inedible husks. This practice of playing is a harvest of sorts. You’re finding the things that can continue to grow in you and throwing out the rest.

When you do this often enough, you’ll see a thread connecting all of your sketchbook pages or paintings.

That is you shining through.

Art is a process of self-discovery. Your expressions are unlike any other human on the planet, that’s an incredible gift.

Grab some supplies, hit play on the video, and practice some intuitive mark-making with me today.

Then, tell me below what you noticed as you played in your sketchbook.
