Want to become a better, more confident artist?
You gotta make more art! That’s where sketchbook practice comes in.
You don’t have to be the best artist to have a sketchbook practice.
You don’t have to make the best art.
If you’re a person with even the slightest twinkle of creative curiosity, a sketchbook practice is for you. You just need a sketchbook and pencil to get started. Nothing fancy.

I’m Steph
Hey there!
I grow flowers and vegetables, watch birds, keep an eye peeped for interesting insects, and then paint those things. And other stuff too.
I’m a sketchbook explorer and creativity ponderer.
And I help artists (yep you’re an artist even if it’s been YEARS since you made art) like you cultivate their creativity, start a sketchbook practice, and grow their artistic confidence every day.
“Steph has a magical way of breaking down an overwhelming undertaking into bite-sized, actionable goals.”

Feedback for Artist’s Greenhouse classes
“This course gave me even more than I thought it could. It does everything it says on the tin—it has definitely jumpstarted my children's book career!—but it also gives you foundational habits, confidence in your skills, the knowledge to learn new skills, and a really wonderful community of people in the same boat as you are. The lessons are perfectly-paced and Steph makes everything so approachable and easy to understand that it never feels overwhelming, which is a feat because there's a lot of information that you get! Since taking the course, everything that felt hard suddenly feels so doable, and I've already seen so much progress in my art and in... honestly everything else.”

“Children’s Book Career Jumpstart is an incredible course. Jumpstart is the right term. I have been illustrating for a little bit but this outstanding course put me on the right track. Puts everything into perspective and lays out how to move forward. (Which is where I was stuck). Steph basically takes you by the hand and leads you in the right direction. (No not the right direction because as she says everyone is at different stages) she leads you to where you need to be.“

You’re never too old and it’s never too late to start a sketchbook, to pick up a paintbrush, to start doodling, to start throwing paint around, to let art flow through you again.
