Imagine being in a calligraphy class or art workshop taking notes but all the pages look the same. It’s hard to look back and remember what you wrote and where to find it. What makes one line of text differ from the rest?

Learn to sketchnote!

It’s a great learning tool you can use when taking notes in class and workshops, journaling vacations, and telling a visual story.

Designed with the calligrapher or lettering artist LEARNER in mind, in this course, we will:

• Explore a variety of materials used by professional and amateur sketchnoters.
• Adopt a fast lettering style to use when rapid capturing and vary it up to fit your style and needs.
• Practice hierarchy and page composition to help guide the reader’s eye across the page.
• Draw simple objects quickly to serve as mnemonic devices.

In addition to the sketchnoting videos created for this course, you will also automatically receive the How to Write like an Architect online course (a $35 value) and access to Unlock Your Neuland Markers. That's 3 classes for the price of one!

About Heather

I love letters—writing them, drawing them, talking about them, and teaching them!

At a Washington, D.C. meetup, I realized my lettering was the heart of my graphic recording. Later, during a workshop with Carol DuBosch at the National Calligraphy Conference, I discovered that calligraphy scripts could be translated into marker-based lettering styles.

Since 2016, I’ve studied with masters of calligraphy, sign painting, and graffiti, translating their techniques into practical methods for visual practitioners. But I’ve also realized that anyone can benefit from learning these skills, whether for professional or personal use.

Today, I offer online courses, virtual 1:1 sessions, and in-person workshops at The ArtRoom in Durango, Colorado.

If you’re as excited about lettering as I am—or if you’re ready to discover that excitement—let’s connect!
