R.J. Jensen A Trail Through Leaves

    A Trail Through Leaves was intriguing in the fact that it told you what a good nature journal is comprised of.  I thought that Hannah Hinchman was a little dry in some places but I also found it interesting to see and hear her thoughts manifesting them self.  This really gives you more insight in to her little isolated world filled with cats.  I thought she was a little quirky running around in the snow having a snowball fight with her cats, but it really shows her personality and her discipline come from her sunny disposition.     Hannah seems to have this way of being organized and cluttered all at once.  It was a good diagram for me to gather thoughts of my own nature journal.  Such as the way she has everything labeled and almost meticulously written about.  She has such great descriptive skills and could describe most any thing, like the snowball fight with her cats or how she thought she was a horse jumping over taller fences than any of the boys in her town.      Every time a fellow artiest allows me in to their world to actually look around and see the world from their vantage point it is always a great learning experience at least for me.  Its one of the most amazing things to me when another artiest will share a journal or an unfinished drawing I learn the most from the works in progress.  To be able to walk in someone else's shoes like that and see what it is that they are seeing has always been one thing I have been really good at.  So it was a really good learning experience for me because i felt like i was in her head.
