In Draw Your Adventures, artist and illustrator Samantha Dion Baker invites you to savour moments and capture memories using your eyes, your creativity, and a few art-making tools. With as little as a sketchbook and some pens, begin a new art practice or enliven an existing one with inspiration from the prompts, challenges, examples, and scavenger hunts that populate these pages.

Paint your own postcards to send when abroad.
Add pockets to your sketchbook for storing mementos.
Create abstract pieces featuring the colours of the clothes you dug up in a closet cleanout.
Make a series of paintings of family and friends’ front doors.
Document what you see around you on plane, train, boat, and road trips.

Draw Your Adventures is the perfect size to carry with you on your excursions. Stunning visual examples from Baker’s own work accompany the prompts, making this the perfect book to help inspire your own artmaking practice.
