Pocket Sketching with Kath Macaulay
Field Equipment
Season 2
Episode 9
When you really want portability, keep everything compact instead of big, thick sketchbooks that are hard bound. You want to see it, sketch it and leave within 25 minutes or less. You do not want to attract other people who will distract you. Plan to never put anything down on a table or easel where you will attract people or lose equipment.
