The Coffee Cup Club ☕
No Slackers Allowed.
Grab a cup and get to work. The Coffee Cup Club is the ongoing training ground inside Planet Looseness—new lessons and experiments designed to help you draw more, explore your subjects, strengthen your design and composition, and develop a looser, more expressive approach to watercolor. This isn't another course to finish. It's where we keep exploring.
Architectural Explorations
One architectural reference. Several little discoveries. Explore buildings, shapes, and interesting details through graphite, colored pencil, ink, charcoal, and crayon—without worrying about creating a finished painting.
Flower Power, Slackers! Explore Something New
You don't have to love every subject you draw. Grab something unfamiliar, get curious, and see where it takes you. Today we're exploring a floral arrangement with graphite, compressed charcoal, and crayon.
One Boat. Five Studies. Zero Masterpieces.
Forget the entire harbor, Slackers! Pick one boat, grab a few drawing materials, and spend some time getting familiar with a subject you love.
Same House, Different Pencil, New Discoveries
One subject doesn't mean one approach, Slackers! Revisit a familiar coastal house with red Prismacolor and discover how changing your materials can lead to fresh ideas and expressive marks.
Connecting With Your Subjects: The Coastal House
Forget the entire landscape, Slackers. Pick one thing that catches your eye and spend some time getting to know it. A little graphite, a few crayons, and some curiosity can go a long way.
