BEAR’S ADVENTURE

Published by Star Bright Books

“…pictorial fantasies and plasticity. The artist deals with paint in every way possible, transparent and opaque colours, wet on wet, glazed… a sure sense of construction in each drawing creates a good foundation for the lyrical colour arrangement. The total effect is serene but vigorous, delicate but never timid…”
Wilson Library Bulletin
