Synopsis "Trees of the West: An Artist’S Guide "

Illustrated throughout with art in a variety of mediums: pencil, pen, and wash sketches; block prints; studio watercolors; and intaglio etchings Includes a rich natural history and brief ethnobotanical notes for each featured species Features poems and quotes from other writers and artistscelebrating our connection to trees Artist Molly Hashimoto has appreciated trees all her life--they have shaped her as a hiker, outdoors lover, gardener, traveler, and artist. She pays homage to them through her art, working in many different media, each revealing different aspects of these stalwart companions: crisp lines, imposing silhouettes, and the subtle-or sometimes brilliant--hues of foliage. Hashimoto also delves into the process of creating art, discussing the mediums she used in the featured pieces and the reasons she chose them, as well as sidebars with tips and techniques. As in her popular Colors of the West and Birds of the West, Hashimoto emphasizes her personal experiences with nature, telling stories about her encounters with trees everywhere from her backyard to national parks and forests throughout the West. She focuses primarily on native trees, rather than cultivars, with a special interest in 46 major species found across the region, ranging from the stately Coast redwoods to the diminutive but distinctive Fishhook Barrel Cactus. Rooted in place, trees offer endless opportunities for observation, admiration, relaxation, and inspiration. Trees of the West invites us to pause and appreciate these sentinels in all their quiet glory.
