Part testimonial, part instructional and part demonstrative, this book describes the author's personal experiences travel sketching in and around the city of Istanbul Turkey. Using dozens of ink-and-watercolor illustrations, along with detailed captions, he breaks down his travel sketching endeavors into three modes of sketching, each describing different states of mind, different expectations and different outcomes, each with its unique rewards. From big-picture, "whys" to highly detailed "hows", this book draws the reader into the joys, challenges and satisfaction of observing and remembering places visited through the lens of travel sketching.

This exhibition design comprises a contemplative space, enhancing the quiet monumentality of Kahn's drawings, as well as reflecting his own preoccupations with symmetry, walls, and their openings. The four trips within the show were arranged chronological in intimate roomlike spaces, color-coded to evoke an atmosphere appropriate to their location: storm blue for New England, saturated yellow for Greece, etc. The color band, which narrows one's focus within the tall gallery and on which all works were hung, was continuous throughout a single trip, and broke between trips, instilling a sense of travel through time and space. Windows framed important works, allowing them to be seen twice, in two contexts, as well as allowing views of a "peopled" space.

'It was with awe That I beheld Fresh leaves, green leaves, Bright in the sun' When the Japanese haiku master Basho composed The Narrow Road to the Deep North, he was an ardent student of Zen Buddhism, setting off on a series of travels designed to strip away the trappings of the material world and bring spiritual enlightenment. He writes of the seasons changing, the smell of the rain, the brightness of the moon and the beauty of the waterfall, through which he sensed the mysteries of the universe. These writings not only chronicle Basho's travels, but they also capture his vision of eternity in the transient world around him. Translated with an Introduction by Nobuyuki Yuasa

"Get ready to check-in into Mike Daikubara's delightful world of sketched hotel rooms. With his meticulous pen and ink renditions of every hotel room he's stayed in, Daikubara makes even the most non-descriptive quarters feel interesting. His diagrams aren't mere blue-prints or schematics. He goes as far as depicting the rooms in striking bird's-eye perspective, carefully including details such as bathroom tiles, wall decorations and even the refreshments inside the fridge. This is a book that any traveler will enjoy and of added value for sketchers, architects or interior designers."Gabriel CampanarioFounder of Urban Sketchers (www.uransketchers.org), a nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering the art of on-location drawing, and also is the Author of the book "The Art of Urban Sketching".
