About the Author

Jim Lammers, FAIA, was trained as an architect back when freehand sketching was an integral part of the curriculum. He is a tireless writer and relentless sketcher. Jim has been published in professional journals, and his sketches have been exhibited at fine art venues. His first book—Capture the Moment: An Architect’s Guide to Travel Sketching has been published by ORO Editions. Jim teaches sketching at Marine Mills Folk Art School. His roots go back three generations in Chisago County, Minnesota, where he’s lived on his hundred-year-old farmstead since 1992.
