title: Principles Of Natural Camouflage: The Art of Invisibility
author: Eddie Starnater
description: Eddie Starnater is one of the top Primitive and Survival Skills experts in the United States, and has been practicing and perfecting his Primitive, Wilderness and Survival skills since childhood. Over the past 40 years Eddie has become a Master Flintknapper, and an expert bowyer, tracker, primitive potter and maker of all types of primitive weaponry. He has spent years living in the woods and off the land, learning wild edible and medicinal plants and perfecting his wide range of Wilderness Survival skills  both on countless Survival Outings in varied eco-systems around the country, and while living for months at a time in a long-term shelter in the Pine Barrens of New Jersey. Eddie has been interviewed in publications ranging from Wilderness Way to The New York Times, featured in multiple television segments for local and network news programs, including ABC World News Tonight, and provided many of the stone tools used by Tommy Lee Jones and Benicio del Toro in the 2003 feature film, "The Hunted". A former Hunter Safety Education instructor and Continuing Education teacher in his home State of Texas, Eddie spent over 10 years conducting workshops prior to becoming an instructor for, then Director of, Tom Brown Jr.'s Tracker School. During his tenure there Eddie taught all types of primitive skills, survival, tracking, and nature awareness to tens of thousands of students from around the globe. In 2006 Eddie became tired of the huge class sizes, lecture format and industrialized teaching style of schools that had become more focused on notebook knowledge over the hands-on learning and internalization of the skills to which he had dedicated his life. He decided it was past time to return to his roots and get back to teaching in the manner in which he was taught. Eddie founded Practical Primitive together with Julie Martin in January 2007. The small-group, adult-only workshops for which their school has become known provide a unique and unparalleled opportunity for those who wish to learn quality skills from one who has spent the majority of his life working, learning, and perfecting the Primitive Arts. He works and lives in New Jersey with Julie Martin, his wonderful partner of 10 years, and their adorable dog, Boomer.
