At least in theory, because if you are a recovering perfectionist like me, you probably shudder at the mere thought of making a mess in a pretty sketchbook you just bought. And as a result, you don’t use it at all.

The only way to loosen up and actually stop treating your sketchbook like a sacred object you're not allowed to touch is to get into a habit of drawing in it, like a lot. Sounds like a vicious circle, I know, but I found a way to break out of it by ignoring all the good advice out there and allowing myself to actually make my sketchbook drawings pretty, at least initially.

In this class, I'll show you 6 fun ways to fill your sketchbook page with botanical elements. And I’ve designed these exercises, so you can actually start practicing your floral doodles without panicking that you will ruin your gorgeous sketchbook.

They are really simple, they allow you to actually make a lot of mistakes, and yet the end result can be quite stunning.
