Book Reviews of How to Keep a Sketchbook Journal

Book Review: truly a life enhancing experience
Summary: 5 Stars

I was fascinated by the style and piercing grab Claudia Nice arrived at in her book "How To Keep A Sketchbook Journal" and added some of her suggestions to my own Journaling.
It is amazing but some events I "Liked" became events I "Love"
now that they have been recorded, illustrated and enhanced with the further insights that seem to tease out or arrive when you revisit the past.(Suggestion: Leave space for new insights and spantaneous arrisings of surprising feelings and sensations as your penetrations into your own life take on a new life of their own ) If you connect meditation with your journaling new space opens up and it is like having a Parallel Universe to be alive in. Truly a life enhancing experience...
You owe yourself this books enhancement to the life you own.
When you get the knack of it every day can be an adverturous trip that is worth writing about.
Seems like there is immesurable meaning and depth to life once you start looking.
Thank you Claudia ...

Summary of How to Keep a Sketchbook Journal

Keep a sketchbook journal and explore your world, preserve your thoughts and celebrate life!

More than a diary of written words, a sketchbook journal allows you to indulge your imagination and exercise your artistic creativity. It is a personal, private place where you have unlimited freedom to express yourself, experiment, discover, dream and document your world. The possibilities are endless.

In How to Keep a Sketchbook Journal, Claudia Nice shows you samples from her own journals and provides you with advice and encouragement for keeping your own. She reviews types of journals, from theme and garden journals to travel journals and fantasy sketchbooks, as well as the basic techniques for using pencils, pens, brushes, inks and watercolors to capture your thoughts and impressions.

Exactly what goes in your journal is up to you. Sketch quickly to capture a thought or image before it vanishes. Draw or paint with care, to render an idea or vision as realistically as possible. Write about what you see. The choice is yours--and the memories you'll preserve will last a lifetime.
