From the artist's site: This is the artist's third catalogue raisonné, the largest most detailed printed to date. It was curated and color managed by master book smith Marcel Salome. The book explores the vivid imagination, depth of compositional layers and dry brush technique the artist has become well known for. The introduction, written by accomplished author Elizabeth Lunday, gives insights into the recent history of Imaginary Realism in the shadow of modern art. The text, written by the artist himself, reveals a view from inside the artist's world and the philosophy that infuses his art.
