What if creating could feel this simple?
You don’t always need a grand idea, a beautiful reference or an elaborate art project to feel creative. Sometimes, all you need is a pen and a piece of paper.
- A line becomes a pattern.
- A dot becomes a cluster.
- A simple circle becomes something unexpected when repeated over and over again.
And before you know it, you’ve filled a page with your own marks.
This is the beauty of repetitive mark making.
It’s not about what you create. It’s about discovering what happens when you give yourself permission to simply make.

Hi, I'm Debasree...
… your guide on this mixed-media art journey!
After a decade in the IT corporate world, I returned to art and found healing in collage — the quiet joy of bringing fragments together to create something whole. It became a way to slow down, listen inward, and express without needing words.
Since 2016, I’ve had the privilege of teaching nearly 30,000 students worldwide, encouraging artists to trust their intuition and create fearlessly.
My classes are gentle, tactile, and rooted in the belief that creativity should feel calming, soulful, and deeply personal.
Whether you’re a complete beginner or simply looking to reconnect with your creativity, I’m here to guide you through an experience that nourishes both your hands and your heart.
Over 30,000 students have joined my classes. Here's what a few have said:
“I never realised making simple marks could be so enjoyable. I lost track of time just experimenting!”
“I often struggle with what to create when I open my sketchbook. This class has given me so many simple ideas to explore. I love that I can just pick up a pen and start making marks without overthinking everything.“
“I love how all these little experiments can eventually become part of my art journal pages. I now have a whole collection of ideas to refer to whenever I need inspiration.”
↑↑↑ This could be YOU ↑↑↑
The inspiration behind this class
I wanted to show you how simple and enjoyable mark making can be.
🌀 There Is No One Right Way to Experiment
This isn’t about memorising hundreds of patterns or learning to reproduce someone else’s marks. It’s about discovering what happens when you give yourself the freedom to experiment.
Inside this class, you’ll:
-
Explore at your own pace: There is no pressure to get things right or perfect.
-
Discover your own marks that you naturally enjoy making.
-
Build a personal creative resource of marks.
-
Make the most of simple materials.
-
Bring your experiments into your artworks and art journals.
You dont have to make something beautiful every time
Sometimes, we put so much pressure on ourselves to create something worthwhile that we forget to enjoy the actual process of making art.
We worry about what to create, whether it will look good, whether we’re doing it right and what we’ll do with the finished piece.
But not every creative session needs a purpose.
You can fill a page with little dots. Repeat the same line fifty times. Experiment with circles, scribbles or writing that nobody else needs to read.
You don’t have to turn everything into a finished artwork.
Sometimes, making the marks is enough.
And perhaps that’s something we could all use a little more of.
🧡 A note before you begin
You don’t need to set aside hours, plan a masterpiece or get everything right.
Start with a few sheets of paper and a tool you enjoy using.
Make a simple mark. Repeat it. Change the rhythm, the colour or the surface. See what happens.
Let this be a space where you can experiment without pressure and enjoy creating one mark at a time.
Ready to make some marks?
Give yourself permission to slow down, experiment and enjoy the simple act of creating.
Explore new mark making techniques, discover your own collection of repetitive patterns and create a Mark Making Dictionary that will keep inspiring you long after the class.
We’ll start with one simple mark.
And then another.
And another.
Let’s discover the joy of making marks, one little movement at a time.
