These lovely little artist books are such a great starting point for any project and could be used with different themes such as nature, medicine or botany.
You could create collections of illustrated objects on one theme or be really diverse and eclectic! Throughout the workshop, I’ll share loads of inspiring ideas and pathways to explore.
It’s exciting to ignite a curiousity in yourself which may have been hiding for a while and this class is a fantastic gateway into other explorative projects. Curiouser and curiouser….where will it lead you, my friend?

Lucia Leyfield
Lucia is an artist, letterer and teacher who loves creating illustrated journals and artist books. She has become known for a unique and creative approach to her work which has been described as 'quietly joyful...a nostalgic, moving and profound ...a treasure chest of creativity and inspiration'
Her journals and sketchbooks, which record life as it happens, conversations, inspirations and experiments, have become works of art in their own right. Many of Lucia's sketchbooks are handmade with a range of papers and combine traditional and experimental hand lettering with watercolour, collage and mixed media sketches.
She is inspired by a diverse range of things: the old, rusty and wonky, worn architectural patinas, ancient diagrams, aged buildings, old books and ephemera, explorers' sketchbooks and vintage field guides.
