Book excerpt: Part testimonial, part instructional and part demonstrative, this book describes the author's personal experiences travel sketching in and around the city of Istanbul Turkey. Using dozens of ink-and-watercolor illustrations, along with detailed captions, he breaks down his travel sketching endeavors into three modes of sketching, each describing different states of mind, different expectations and different outcomes, each with its unique rewards. From big-picture, "whys" to highly detailed "hows", this book draws the reader into the joys, challenges and satisfaction of observing and remembering places visited through the lens of travel sketching.
