Dear Drawing Diary

Learn to Draw and Journal the Cozy Moments of Joy in Your Life

Rediscover your creativity – one gentle moment at a time.

From the creator of @dearelaineco, Dear Drawing Diary is a beautifully illustrated interactive art journal designed to help you slow down, unwind, and reconnect with your creativity.

Part sketchbook, part diary, and part art guide, it invites you to draw directly onto its pages, turning the book into a personal record of your creative journey. Organised by the seasons, each chapter celebrates everyday moments through inspiring drawing prompts, gentle guidance, and charming illustrations that make creativity feel approachable and enjoyable.

Inside you'll find:

• Seasonal drawing prompts inspired by everyday life
• Space to sketch, reflect, and create directly on the pages
• Beginner-friendly techniques using gouache, coloured pencil, and pastel
• A unique blend of sketchbook, diary, and creative journal
• Gentle encouragement for mindful, judgment-free creativity

This premium flexibound edition features a lay-flat binding for comfortable drawing, a ribbon marker to keep your place, and high-quality paper that allows you to draw directly in the book with minimal bleed-through.
Whether you have five minutes or an afternoon, Dear Drawing Diary offers a calm, welcoming space to create, reflect, and find joy in everyday moments.
