Chip Sullivan is known as a provocative, original illustrator and inspiring teacher. His drawings overflow with lessons on how to draw and represent landscapes, which is a complex endeavor. In Cartooning the Landscape, Sullivan addresses several well-known (and some lesser-known) events in landscape and garden history but does so unlike anyone else. Sullivan makes history come alive and seem hip and relevant.--Frederick Steiner, University of Texas at Austin, author of Design for a Vulnerable Planet

As an architect who draws cartoons to accompany my Washington Post 'Shaping the City' column, how could I not love Chip Sullivan's book? Today when designers create most drawings digitally, never lifting a pencil, this witty, didactic, manually crafted book is especially timely. Cartooning landscapes and much, much more, Sullivan artfully uses his pencil to craft images, tell stories, and teach lessons, recounting history and nostalgically evoking memories of what life was like before TV and smart phones. - Roger K.
