Here it is – all my sketches in the one posts from my 5 week trip to Europe in Sept/Oct 09 (there are a few pages in each volume missing due for privacy reasons)

Wow = what fun! I quickly "thumbed" thru all of them and will come back when I have more time. I loved how the pages turned, not to mention all the art! nancy
Well WOW, Liz these are just too wonderful. I feel as if I'd been there with you…
WONDERFUL. I love that the notebooks go to full page. What a feast I shall have, looking at these.

Wow! I have just spent a happy half-hour looking at your sketch books. They are truly awsome!
Europe, tea, and architecture – what else to desire for!
Thank you for sharing. These pages are so inspiring. Looks like you ate well!
Wonderful journals! Artwork was great + all that time you have put to sketching and scanning and… I am full of admiration!
I'm in awe! Just fabulous! I'll have to read it when I have more time. How wonderful to share the experience with us. I kept wondering where's the bear….. checked back into the blog and was happy to see him there! When you say a "quick sketch" what is the range in time for the (truely amazing) architectual drawings? Just like to know what is possible so I can push myself to sketch so quickly!
Continued success
Oh, Liz! Unbelievable! I took a brief glance thru all but m u s t do this with a cup of tea and savor the experience. Wow! Thank you for sharing – and in such wonderful fashion!
Found these about the time I was supposed to be cooking dinner. Ooops! Must come back later…
thanks everyone! It is so nice that I share my books as if I just handed them to you (almost!)
@Lyn – I think that most of these sketches took about 20-30 minutes each. Except for Paris where Eza and I normally were at one spot for an hour – though I often got to draw a second or third. I normally just do enough pencil line setup to know that it fit the page and the bays/spacings of the building are ok – I then just go for it with ink.
Just absolutely wonderful! Thank you for sharing, these are fabulous travel journals!
Awesome and what everyone has said. These are so much better than photographs and they will be great memories. What a keepsake. Like you made your own travel catalog. Loved the sketches, and you even drew in the little maps to show where you were traveling. Loved your commentary, too. What a great idea this Issuu.
Complimenti. It's one of my favorites blog. Very very nice jewels.
Brava!
You obviously had a very wonderful trip and with all those lovely drawings, you will be able to relive it over and over.
I love your sketching style!
thanks again everyone! I am glad you enjoyed them!
I love your sketches and look often at your blog and flickr entries. It's a wonderful idea to collate your recent travel sketches into one place and I am off now to buy a copy of your book
from Blurb so I can enjoy it in the garden with a cup of tea when Spring eventually arrives
