Thomas Kinkade was a prolific and widely known American painter celebrated for his idyllic depictions of landscapes, gardens, cottages, and small-town life. He was often referred to as the "Painter of Light." Born in Sacramento, California, in 1958, he attended UC Berkeley and Art Center College of Design before working on this book and the background paintings for the animated film Fire and Ice. After returning to his hometown of Placerville in 1985, Kinkade created a publishing and licensing company which reproduced his works on a wide variety of products. His brand remains influential after his death in 2012, and his legacy endures through the charitable work of The Kinkade Family Foundation and the ongoing publishing and licensing efforts of the business that bears his name. James Gurney is an artist and author best known for his New York Times bestselling book series Dinotopia, detailing a fantastical world where humans and dinosaurs coexist. In the 1980s, he painted science fiction paperback covers and archaeological reconstructions for National Geographic Magazine. Gurney's original oil paintings have been shown in over 35 one-man exhibitions in museums such as the Smithsonian, the Norman Rockwell Museum, and the Delaware Art Museum. He wrote Color and Light and Imaginative Realism based on his popular blog Gurney Journey and more than 90 consecutive articles for International Artist Magazine. His YouTube channel about painting on location has over 500k subscribers.

"The Artist’s Guide to Sketching conveys the what, where, how-to and, most importantly, the why of drawing on location. As a lifelong reportage artist, urban sketcher and arts educator, I highly recommend the expanded edition of this classic book to art students, professionals, hobbyists, and everyone in between. Drawing connects us to our world, and this book connects us to drawing." (Veronica Lawlor, Reportage Artist and Professor)
