“Another valuable addition to the wonderful ways of field sketching and drawing Nature.”—Clare Walker Leslie, author of Keeping a Nature Journal and The Art of Field Sketching
“A beautiful and thoughtfully curated guide to starting your own nature journaling practice, developing your journaling skills, and expanding your observer's toolbox. Kristin inspires us to explore the wonder and beauty of the world, developing our ability to pay attention and connecting more deeply with the natural world.”—John Muir Laws, author of How to Teach Nature Journaling
“Discover the Art of Field Sketching is deeply personal, as Kristin invites us to explore her home region in Alaska through place-based exercises and stories of her art adventures. An all-around gem of a book!”—Rosalie Haizlett, author of Watercolor in Nature and Tiny Worlds of the Appalachian Mountains
“It’s really rather charming and, in a field where the author’s style will be the chief attraction, quite a winner.”
—The Art Book Review
“Link asks the reader to let go of any perfectionism. The approach is to learn to pay attention and to draw as a form of meditation. This process is great, especially for anyone looking for more analog time and less screen time.”
—Early Bird Books
