From the Book Shelf

This is a lovely book I discovered several years ago.  The author has traveled the world filling his sketchbooks with wonderful remembrances of the countries he's lived in and visited.  Gentle instruction leads the reader from how to gather supplies through lessons in perspective, value, and other basics.  Pencil, pen and ink, watercolour - it's all here, with dozens of beautiful examples of his art.  I have used many of his tips in my own travel journals.  Get a copy - I'm sure you'll enjoy it immensely.
