Really enjoyed this talk between you both... incredible breadth of knowledge. Yvea has a fantastic nature book collection! WOW! I am excited about the Mindset books :)
Thank you for this! The book which really got me started in this is Irene Brady's Illustrating Nature. It's more geared towards becoming a nature illustrator but she includes examples of nature sketchbooks too. Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady is one of the early ones and has been very influential (in the UK at least), but not a 'how to' book.
Wow! Glad you liked this review of books, it sounds like you are a book person too! I have never seen Irene Brady's book but will look into it. Thanks for sharing :)
Thanks to everyone who joined in and contributed to this rich conversation! When you watch the video be sure to check out the chat replay because there were a lot of good book recommendations there. Yvea and I are also working on a list of all the books we mentioned with links. Check the description of the video above.
