I have enjoyed Ian’s book so much. The narrative about each location is wonderful with stories of what he was thinking and putting into his sketches. The book is larger than I expected and the quality of the paper is superb. Ian’s artwork is on every page so you have an Ian gallery at your fingertips with interesting, helpful, and sometimes humorous stories to go with the illustrations. Having the book allows you to study Ian’s artwork closeup. It teaches you to revel in what Ian calls “street furniture” and “fiddly bits”. You will learn about his philosophy of shape, color, and story. If you love Ian’s artwork you should have his book.
