The Art Of Travel With A Sketchbook
|
Back Cover InformationIn this book Mari gives six simple but effective tips to help launch you into the wonderful world of sketching. Along with some of her workshop participants, she shares an intimate way to record travel experiences, one that requires you to slow down and capture the moment. The approach presented in this book is not about doing "good" drawing or painting. It is about letting the hand record what the eye sees with whatever tool is available, without rules or recipes. All you need is your hand, your eyes, your heart and the desire to travel differently.
