You as a painter need a place to record and explore the inspirations that compel you to create. Erin O'Toole masterfully weaves together insights into the basics of journaling with examples from her own work.
O'Toole discusses the materials involved in keeping a journal, then details a variety of popular journal subjects, from gardening and travel to wildlife and even your own neighborhood. You will also find advice for sharing the contents of your journals with others.
In addition, O'Toole provides guidelines for compiling a portable journaling "kit" that you can take with you anywhere!
Erin O'Toole has kept journals and canvases filled with images of natural history, gardens and scenic waterways, for over twenty years.
She is equally talented in the fields of pen, ink, watercolor and oils. Her artwork has been featured in several publications, including a field guide for the Bobelaine Audubon Sanctuary and Great Hikes in the Poconos. She recently completed many of the botanical and how to illustrations for the seventh edition of the Sunset Western Garden Book. |
