The ultimate guide to nature drawing and journaling! A potent
combination of art, science, and boundless enthusiasm, this art
instruction book from John Muir Laws (author of The Laws Guide to
Drawing Birds) is a how-to guide for becoming a better artist and a
more attentive naturalist. In straightforward text complemented by
step-by-step illustrations, dozens of exercises lead the hand and
mind through creating accurate reproductions of plants and animals
as well as landscapes, skies, and more. Laws provides clear,
practical advice for every step of the process for artists at every
level, from the basics of choosing supplies to advanced techniques.
While the book's advice will improve the skills of already
accomplished artists, the emphasis on seeing, learning, and feeling
will make this book valuable-even revelatory-to anyone interested
in the natural world, no matter how rudimentary their artistic
abilities.
