Mr. Bertauski’s generousity in sharing his wealth of information is stunning. I’ve been working on landscape graphics, flying by the seat of my pants, for a few years now. Altho’ I do have a background in fine arts & wasn’t completely clueless, this book enabled me to hone in on the most effective graphic tools for the design. Got to use the book within days of receiving it. Most artists “steal” from each other; Bertauski kindly gives it away.

This is a very nice book unless it’s not too diferent from others on the same subject. I think it needs more links with digital techniques.

I purchased this book because this is the textbook assigned for a landscape design class. This book is for the people who are just starting to learn hand drafting and landscape drawing. It does not teach design itself. Only drafting technique for landscape drawing.

Great book! My instructor also said that if he had written a book for his class that it would be just like this one

Indispensable! As a novice to the field of Landscape architecture/ design; this books proves to be the most valuable source I have found in explaining techniques that are often overlooked in the studio instructions at universities. Step-by-step guides, no subject is neglect as self evident or insignificant; – a must read.
