I am so excited to announce a FREE 7-Day Sketchbook Challenge coming up from 23rd - 29th May 2022.
Each day from Monday 23rd May - Sunday 29th May 2022 I will send you a new sketching prompt. This will be shared (FOR FREE) via my YouTube channel email list and on social media. Take the prompt, be inspired and draw a little something. Take just a few minutes or a little longer if you want. The challenge is suitable for everyone whether you have never picked up a pencil before or whether you are a seasoned pro.
The aim is just to make drawing become a habit and part of your daily routine. I want to help you to fill your sketchbook, boost your creativity and get your drawing mojo back on top form.

Who am I?
Hi, my name is Susan and I am an artist, author, podcast host and TEDx speaker. I have written and published six art books including Learning Linocut (2011), an Amazon no. 1 bestseller and Beginner's Guide to Linocut (2018).
My NEW BOOK Sketchbook Challenge: 100 Prompts for Daily Drawing is due to be published in July 2022.
I obtained a fine art, printmaking degree from Loughborough University and have been teaching art courses and workshops both in person and online since 2003. I also co-own a pottery café in Woking, Surrey. My TEDx talk, Create your mandala universe – collaborate for a beautiful life, was broadcast in 2020.
I run an annual 30-day sketching challenge every January through my website susanyeates.co.uk, Instagram (@learninglinocut) and Facebook, encouraging people to develop a daily sketching habit.
I live and work in Woking in Surrey, UK, and continue to teach printmaking and sketching through online courses. I am passionate about inspiring others to get creative and also host a podcast called Creativity Talks.
I love encouraging others to get creative and welcome you into this FREE 7-Day Sketchbook Challenge this May!

Thousands of people from across the world have taken part in sketchbook challenges with me over the past five years and are some of their reasons for joining in:

- I have wanted to start sketching more regularly and I hope this will help!
- To make and commit more time to do art and to improve
- To remind me to draw more
- To help me start sketching again
- I love to sketch and find it very therapeutic but life can be so hectic I forget to spend time on the things I love to do
- Because I’m a full time painter but want to get back into the very good habit of using a sketchbook daily
- To encourage myself to try drawing
- Love an arty challenge…
