Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Group Self-Paced Version of Sketchbook Design?
A Group Self-Paced Version is a chance to work through the Sketchbook Design course with a group of sketchers from around the world. Together we’ll work through the course and keep each other motivated and inspired!
When does it start? How long will it go for?
The Group Self-Paced Version will start on Wednesday 9 July 2025. The classroom and content is accessible from the time of purchase, so prior to the start date you might like to work through the Intro lessons.
The course will last for 9 weeks, and the classroom will remain open so that you can return to the lessons and exercises whenever you like.
Lesson Schedule:
Introduction (1 week) – Wed 9 July
Lesson 1: Adding elements (2 weeks) – Wed 16 July
Lesson 2: Contained compositions (2 weeks) – Wed 30 July
Lesson 3: Open compositions (2 weeks) – Wed 13 August
Lesson 4: Designing on the fly (2 weeks) – Wed 27 August
An email will be sent out on Wednesdays at 8pm Sydney, Australia time to let you know that it’s time to move onto the next lesson.
Can I participate even though I am in a different time zone to Sydney, Australia?
Yes! You can log into the classroom at any time to view the lessons (pre-recorded videos), ask questions and/or upload your work.
Is there anything I need to do before the Group Event starts?

Teacher Interaction during the Group Self-Paced Version
