“On the contrary, Richards\u2019 experience as a travel artist demonstrates how complex, variegated and often startling that condition can be.”<\/em>\u2014Sketcher Press
\nTravel Artist: Sketchbook Drawings and True Stories from the Road<\/em><\/strong> is an illustrated travelogue drawn from 20 years of travel to 50 countries, and from the scores of sketchbooks and journals created along the way. A sketchbook changes travel, from checking off an itinerary checklist and Instagram moments to a journey of discovery: about places, about people, about yourself. Richards\u2019 stories are told through hundreds of full colour and black and white travel sketches and essays that cross the globe, from the savannas of Kenya to the Central Highlands of Vietnam, from the Hemingway haunts of Key West to the customs interrogation room of the Havana airport. The stories and drawings pull the reader into the transformational experience of international travel, and the added richness and creative rush that closer observation and on-location sketching brings to it. The book is a must-have for creatives, for urban sketchers, and for anyone with an explorer\u2019s heart and a creative itch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
