Book Description
Bill Martin's magnificent paintings have been exhibited in galleries and museums worldwide, and some have been reproduced in various publications over the last twenty years. Lost Legends is a long-awaited presentation of thiry-six of his compelling works, half of which have never been published before - but none of which have ever been published in this context. For here, Martin has written a story for each painting, providing a new vehicle through which we can view and absorb his pictures. These stories - myths that feel ancient and remembered, not newly invented - reveal the haughtiness of butterflies, the reason for the existence of evil people, and the fascination of Earth's son, Sculptor, with the color orange. Martin's finely detailed, technically brilliant paintings draw us into a universe where nature is all-powerful, where the unfamiliar and unexpected appear natural, and where we can take time to study individual poppy petals as well as stare in awe at the vastness of an artic skyscape.
