"The Travel Journal Workshop" will give you a real working guide for gathering information. We will explore the elements of design and composition, and have fun with experimental tools to create your own sketchbook. We will look for different ways to get your message across and how to overcome any anxiety working in your sketchbook. It is your creative journal and personal to you, but it will be great to guide you when you travel.
