Animal Tracks of Minnesota and Wisconsin
21. Dez 2019
No turkey tracks?
Obviously you can’t have every animal, but I was surprised that in the bird section, turkeys were absent. There were a few other fairly common animals that were also absent but for a couple bucks it will get my little outdoorsman started. I’d have gladly paid more for color photos of the animals in question or even of some tracks in addition to the drawings though.
Hawthorne on Painting by Charles W. Hawthorne
03. Aug 2021
Nice light read
Not super in depth, but a entertaining and thoughtful quick read. Easy to tuck into a bag and take with you. A sometimes funny, informative, and philosophical side of plein air painting. This provides an interesting perspective from someone who doesn’t hold a mainstream view of what plein air painters should focus on. Instead of drawing and accuracy, Hawthorne really only wants his students to focus on color. The rest takes care of itself if you get the color correct.
