Nancy

This well-paced course is jam-packed with tips to help artists, at all stages, develop their sketchbook practice. I loved seeing how paintings emerge in real time, and Laura's charming 'stream of consciousness' commentary provides a valuable window in to her process. Incredibly good value.

Laura generously shares her years of sketching experience and breaks the process down into steps anyone can follow. You won't be disappointed - it's a real treat! My confidence has grown so much.

About Laura

Contemporary Landscape Painter

Laura lives and works in the UK as a full time artist. Born in Ireland, her work is influenced by her childhood spent exploring beaches and rock pools and constantly drawing in the sand. 

While she is instinctively drawn to the abstract, her work hovers between reality and abstraction grounded in landscape. Laura's work can be found in galleries across the UK and most recently her work features in the 2025 Soho Home catalogue. Check out her website below.
