A collection of lessons and topics on botanical sketching, featuring a unique approach in which observing botanical species becomes a meditative practice that enriches both the artist and the individual. Rules for having no rules in the creative, scientific, and personal space of a study notebook.
The volume is richly illustrated with the renowned sketchbook pages of the author, the botanical artist Giacomina Ferrillo. Fervent promoter of this intimate and highly formative discipline, she demonstrates how a simple notebook is elevated to the role of master, offering a space in which to unleash creativity by studying nature.
This small book is dedicated to those who love nature and want to keep their gaze and attention open to the environment, to those who want to bring beauty into their daily lives or exercise their attitudes without pressure. Designed to be a portable companion, along with art supplies, to draw inspiration and facilitate a deeper connection with nature and the surrounding wonders.
