This is one of the wonderful Wyeth books. As difficult as it is to reproduce Andrew Wyeth's masterly paintings and drawings (a truly impossible job) this large volume gives one at least a taste of his genius. It is like going out on his artistic journeys with him sketchbook in hand. You get to see masterworks from the first pencil drawings to the finished product. I am amazed that you can pick this one up at such a low price these days, but maybe everyone who loves Wyeth already has this book. I paid $50 for a copy and thought I was fortunate. It is a must buy book for every serious watercolorist. Wyeth opens your eyes to the world.

Stunning egg tempura illustrations by one of America's finest. Wyeth gives us a peek of his train of thought by including many preliminary sketches. A must have for the master and the apprentice of the arts.
