Course Description

Overview

Memorialize your year with a creative illustrated time capsule!

Illustrator Samantha Dion Baker has always been about drawing her day to create little illustrated memories, and in this activity, she’s taking things even further and sharing how to create a visual reflection of your whole year. 

In this 40-minute class—recorded using Zoom and featuring participation from the Skillshare community—she shares some guidelines and inspiration for creating your own illustrated time capsule. Samantha will also be working on her 2020 time capsule during class, giving you a peek behind the curtain of the various stages of her illustration process. 

Whether you’re an artist who wants to illustrate alongside Samantha, or you just want some prompts to write out a few reflections from the year, this is the perfect activity for memorializing the current moment while also looking forward to the future.
