Learn how to use wine as both an inspiration and medium with Sketching Spain All About Vino

Feeling a bit lost when perusing the Spanish section of your local wine shop? Familiar with some wines from Spain and interested in expanding your knowledge? Want a fun and creative way to keep a record of the wines you love?

Join us for an irresistible taste of Spanish wine culture, mixed with simple art journaling skills that will help you slow down and smell the wine bouquet.

We’ll immerse ourselves in decadent Spanish wine varietals, teaching you all you need to know about wine basics along the way. By complimenting your newly acquired wine knowledge with our easy-to-follow art journaling lessons, you’ll develop the perfect recipe for creating a colorful catalog of your favorite wines, whether they are from Spain or all over the world!

Our online course includes wine-focused video demos with Danny and “how to” travel journal art videos with Judith that complement each other perfectly. Each module is jam-packed with useful information about Spanish wine culture and simple instructions to help you improve (or start!) your travel art journal.

Testimonials

I found Sketching Spain-Barcelona when I was missing traveling and wanting to fill COVID self-quarantining space with something fun and productive. This online course was just what I needed! I was able to virtually visit Barcelona and learn how to create a unique and artful travel journal. Travel guide Danny and art teacher Judith put together an engaging and educational course. It will have you counting the days until your next trip!

--Barbara

The Sketching Spain online class has taken me right back to my wonderful week in and around Barcelona with Judith and Danny a couple years ago. Lots of good journaling tips from Judith, as always, and Danny takes you on a fun tour, recipes included, of Barcelona. I can’t wait to take another journey with them, after my planned trip for Oct., 2020 was canceled.
