Book Synopsis



Discover a new way to engage with nature and travel in this beautiful, approachable guide to outdoor sketching for artists and journalers.

Step outside and record the world in your sketchbook. Capture the majesty of mountain landscapes, study the details of a blossoming tree, or record a fleeting city scene. Evocative watercolor and ink drawings created during the author's own wanderings, will inspire you to record your next hike, ramble, or excursion in this freeing and engaging medium.

Each chapter demystifies one aspect of making art outdoors and includes practical exercises that address such topics as:

  • Drawing tools and watercolor techniques
  • The freedom of color
  • Effective ways to push past insecurities
  • Where and when to sketch
  • Adding ingredients such as people, birds, vehicles, and handwriting
  • Digital sketching

Whether you sketch close to home or during travels to distant places, all you need to refresh your creative pursuits are open eyes, a handful of materials, and a little guidance and practice.
