Creating Soulful Travel Journals
What if you could bottle the feeling of a place instead of just the view?
The Travel Art Journal Mini-Course
A low-pressure, high-soul guide to documenting your world.
This isn't a course about technical mastery or perspective drawing. It’s about presence. It’s about building a portable practice that fits into the palm of your hand and helps you bend time while you’re on the move.
Launching 27 April 2026!
Capture the soul of your journey without the pressure of a masterpiece through this mini-course on Travel Art Journaling. Learn how to document the "sacred ordinary" of your travels—from ticket stubs and local textures to the "wonky" architecture of a new city—using a portable, low-stress kit that fits in your bag.
Hi, I’m Jane
I’m an illustrator of 16 books and a lifelong daily sketcher. I’ve learned that the secret to a meaningful journey isn’t in the grand monuments—it’s in the "sacred ordinary."
It’s the texture of a train ticket, the expressive silhouette of a streetlamp, and the specific blue of a Mediterranean morning.
