Interspersed throughout are photographic collages and charming observations.

Sara Midda captures the land, the people, the shimmering air--the whole feeling of Provence and the Cote d' Azur and the spell they cast over even those who haven't been. Describing her own work, Sara Midda says: "It is an evocation, an interpretation of the everyday. It is making discoveries about ordinary things. It is not merely landscapes and buildings, but the artifacts that are the bricks and mortar of a culture."The entire volume is printed on uncoated stock to convey the feeling and texture of an artist's sketchbook., A wondrous sketchbook from a year spent in the south of France--an artist's personal journal carried everywhere and crammed with drawings and notions and thoughts surprising and whimsical.

Sara Midda=a feast for the eyes
South of France: A Sketchbook is a literal AND virtual feast for the eyes. Her charming watercolors of marketplaces, shops and beautiful food discoveries on her travels make you feel like you're there. And make you want to go! Her notes include interesting backgrounds and histories of food and places, people. It is not a book you must read beginning to end; you can jump around and savor intriguing tidbits--but you will return again and again to happily find a missed gem. To use an overused but appropriate word: "Yummy!" Check out all of Midda's beautifully illustrated musings and collect them whenever you can.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
