ReviewsSTARRED REVIEW ** "This book offers an alternative to mass-produced art supplies, explaining that artists can do more than just depict a landscape; they can use it as an art supply store, too. The guide resembles a cookbook and provides a wealth of suggestions and processes for making one's own charcoal, pens, crayons, inks, paper, and sketchbooks. Neddo, who teaches Stone-Age living skills at Vermont's Roots School, challenges the reader to be more engaged with the outside world through ancient-inspired craft techniques. The author's fresh take on creativity emphasizes respect for the natural world and strives to transform fear of the unknown into curiosity. VERDICT This guide holds appeal for artists and craftspeople of various skill levels and complements environmental and naturalist titles." - Library Journal, "His landmark contribution, The Organic Artist , is your Rosetta Stone, if you will, and will unlock your creativity, whether you are an artist or an earth living skills student or instructor. Seriously. This is it. Your Golden Ticket, to a whole new world and relationship to the wild around you. It opens the doors to a level of exploration that most people haven't even tried to pass through, because they 'didn't know how' to make their own paints, inks, paper, or pigments. Until now, that's been a valid point. It's a how-to book, through and through, but it's more than that. It's a showcase of Nick's art, made from oak ink, or grapevine charcoal, or beeswax crayons and hand made paper." - Ricardo Sierra, Hawk Circle Wilderness Education Executive Director
