Book Review: Cotswold Sketchbook

Cotswold Sketchbook - 01


Another beautiful sketchbook from Jim Watson this time covering the Cotswolds, featuring its rolling hills and the traditional buildings from 36 popular towns and villages.

English houses are captured wonderfully with watercolour. All drawings come with interesting description about the places, the buildings and their history. It's a nice read for tourists and non-tourists — that's everyone. I like the simple architecture of the houses.

Charming sketchbook.

I really like like his style, very charming. I'm going to have to see what else this Jim Watson did.
Thanks for the review as usual.
