- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Another amazing book by Claudia Nice! The only reason I am giving this 4 out of 5 stars, is that like her other books, I don't think this makes a great digital book. Much of the book is written in a thin scrolling font that is very hard to zoom in on (at least it's difficult on Scribd desktop). That being said, I look at these books on Scribd so that I can decide if I want to buy the physical copy or not. I was surprised to find that most of this book is entirely original content that deals with landscape elements. I would say this book is for those who understand the general principles of landscape drawing/painting (such as blocking in and basic perspective), but want to go further with their detail skills. You will not find pages of step-by-step paint by number tutorials. Instead this is a compendium of techniques and elements that you can study and adapt for your own drawings. This is a MUST HAVE for those wanting to make more detailed sketches, nature journals, and even fine art. I will be buying the physical book and adding to my collection soon!
