"Takes you places"

Some of My Favourite Bushwalking Places: Sketches by John Bartlett

I first started sketching as a teenager living in Hobart, and studying art at Hobart High School. Now, 65 years later, I decided to put pen to paper to capture scenes and memories from some of the best bushwalks I have ever done in Australia.

Without doubt, doing these sketches has given me an immense amount of pleasure, and I hope readers of this magazine enjoy them too, particularly those who know these places.
