0/5 ( ratings)
Marjolein Bastin's glowing, detailed illustrations have charmed nature lovers in the U.S. for more than a decade, as they have done for fans in her native Holland and throughout Europe. From the smallest bird, blossom, or leaf to the complex interaction of forest and prairie, Bastin's art demonstrates her unparalleled skill at capturing the fleeting beauty of the natural world. Now Bastin's many fans can follow her creative process through the seasons in View from a Sketchbook, an intimate portrait of the best-selling artist at work.Through numerous walks and talks with garden writer and editor Tovah Martin, the reader gets to know Bastin's homes and studios in Kansas City, Missouri, Holland, and the Cayman Islands; sees her gardens and natural surroundings; and comes to understand her early influences, and her passionate commitment to preserving and restoring the natural world. Author Marjolein Bastin is one of Hallmark's top three artists, and has garnered an enormous following, not only through her greeting cards, but also with everything from notebooks and journals to birdhouses, wallpaper, and furnishings. Marjolein continues to expand on her popularity in Europe as well, where she writes a monthly column for the Dutch women's magazine, Libelle, and where her children's books, calendars, and journals have sold well into the six figures. Tovah Martin, garden editor of the former Victoria magazine, is a frequent columnist for the New York Times. Her writing also appears often in Country Living, Country Living Gardener, and Garden Design. She was the recipient of the Quill and Trowel "Award of the Year for Writing and Photography" in 1994 for her work on Tasha Tudor's Garden.
