Praise Not FaintBy Jacobin GirondinWinslow Homer - The Color of Light is a work of amazingly penetrating scholarship on many levels that examines the techniques and the pigments and papers used by this foremost of native American watercolorists; as well as much else. Every time a book on Winslow homer comes out; one assumes it will be the last; then yet another emerges that is nevertheless of immense value in understanding this painter. Winslow Homer - The Color of Light is such a book.22 of 23 people found the following review helpful. Finally - A Glorious Reference Book on Homer!By Marshall VandruffFor those of us who revere Homer as a great American artist and who particularly love his watercolors; this book is what weve waited for. I only wish some of the details and close-ups (which are stunning!) were larger.One reviewer said that her watercolor teacher is considering a course with this book as a basis. Great idea. Ive taught watercolor at Fullerton College for sixteen semesters and I would love to do the same. For years my students and I have conjectured on how Homer worked. This book answers almost every question that can be answered. And the reproductions are excellent. And the work is breathtaking.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Fabulous service from Hawaii!By Patricia G.NorthKona Books made two trips to the post to figure out international shipping costs and also chipped in a little extra when the final costs were tallied for insurance; etc. The book was also wrapped carefully and arrived I am told in beautiful as good as new condition. It was such a pleasure to work with the artist/owner and I would recommend her as the best of the best in the true Aloha Spirit. I had a turn-around deadline for a birthday present and she made it happen with 2 days to spare. I cant thank her enough for all her diligence; care; and time spent. is very lucky to have this source!!!
