Byron Birdsall's Alaska New edition

Description for Sales People: Byron Birdsall is one of Alaska s most prolific and beloved artists. Commemorates the 100th anniversary of Anchorage. Dana Stabenow is a best-selling author with a large fan base."Biographical Note: Byron Birdsall s paintings feature brilliant landscapes, as well as uniquely Alaskan images such as puffins, eagles, and fishing boats. An artist with a national reputation and a world traveler, here is a man truly excited about being alive; and this same excitement illuminates his work. His watercolors are distillations of reality, scenes reduced to their basics, with the integrity of the subject intact. His mentors are the great Japanese wood block printers, Hokusai and Hiroshige. Their influence is particularly evident in his washes, flawless gradations of color that ebb and flow. He is also known for his nostalgic renderings of historic Alaska scenes. Byron lives near Tacoma, WA. Dana Stabenow is an award-winning author of mystery, science fiction, and suspense/thriller books. Born in Anchorage a few years before statehood, she grew up in Southeast on a seventy-five-foot fish tender, experienced the 1964 Alaska earthquake firsthand, and worked for the oil industry during the pipeline construction boom days. A recipient of the Alaska Artist of the Year Award, she is a great admirer of Bryon Birdsall s artwork. www.stabenow.com"
