Go on a Sky Walk

Sky walking is one of my favorite ways to reset. What is sky walking? It is simply grabbing a sketchbook and heading outside for a short walk. A little sunshine, some movement, and a few minutes spent looking up can be enough to shift your attention and help you feel present again.

I was inspired to come up with this fun little term by the English Romantic painter John Constable, who referred to his studies of the sky as “skying.”

There is no pressure to make anything finished. It is simply a way to train your eye, spend some time outside, and reconnect with what matters. In this video, I share how and why I sketch clouds from life. If you would like to try a Sky Walk yourself, you can find my free Sky Walk Guide in the Free Resources section.
