A guided sketchbook that sets you up to begin an easy creative ritual of painting one color a day

One Color a Day is a simple and meditative way to visually document each day. Within the book's orderly gridded layout, which includes one box for each day of the year, you simply paint each square a single color and add a word or phrase that reflects your current mood, an observation, or an experience. The result is a visually stunning, deeply personal, and totally unique record of a year. This guided sketchbook was conceived by author Courtney Cerruti, an artist, educator, curator, and executive content editor at Creativebug.

One Color a Day begins with an encouraging note to all aspiring creatives, explaining the many benefits of the practice along with a little technical advice about painting with watercolor. Interspersed throughout are spreads with inspiring ideas for choosing your daily color and using it as opportunity to set an intention or to reflect on the different aspects of your life.
