Sketching Your Journey

with Hushpuppy Moon

From a book by Danny Gregory An Illustrated Journey
". . . visited Paris with a group of other teenagers. Everyone had an Instamatic camera and snapped pictures of the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, . . . Being a snotty and contrarian teenager, I complained that all we were doing was taking the same snapshots as every tourist since the dawn of photography. . . I wanted to be able to see the great sights of Paris from my own particular vantage, to have my very own experience rather than a prepackaged generic tour. . . to truly see the places one has traveled so far to see, one need only pack along a pen and a sketchbook. . .When we document a journey in a sketchbook, we . . . become adventurers, discovering new worlds through a thousand tiny details. . . and build a cache of enduring memories."
