| Summary: | Tour the Greek islands with the artist Anne Desmet in this beautifully produced book of travel sketches. Colorful and atmospheric sketches in pen, wash and watercolor conjure up the unique feel of the Sporades. The latest in a bestselling series of artists' sketchbooks. Every page of this delightful book, meticulously reproduced from the sketchbooks that Anne Desmet has used since her first travels to Greece in the 1980s, is soaked with the sunshine of the Sporades. Desmet's drawings show the daily life of her chosen destinations and the bobbing fishing boats, shady streets and bright blue Mediterranean views that make them so appealing. Desmet commits every detail to paper, and the small-scale format emphasizes her distinctive flair for capturing the relationship between extreme foreground and distance. This is a unique opportunity to explore the Greek islands, through the affectionate eyes of a meticulous artist. |
