My Brush With History
Everett Raymond Kinstler. International Artist, 2005. E.R. Kinstler first came to notice back in the Golden Age of pulp fiction. His work graced many covers in that period including Doc Savage and The Shadow. He also worked in comics creating a much more classical illustrated style than was common at the time.

This book touches on his early commercial art but it focuses on his portrait painting of the great and the good in American public life. Includes official portraits of several US Presidents; Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, George Bush Sr, Bill Clinton, movie stars such as John Wayne, Jimmy Cagney and Katharine Hepburn.

This is a wonderful testament to an artist whose work has been acquired by The National Portrait Gallery, Washington D.C. and The Metropolitan Museum Of Art amongst other leading institutions. The artist tells his own story behind the works in autobiographical sketches. 156 pages. Hard Cover Full Colour 10" x 12½" (254mm x 317mm) ISBN: 1929834608

Maxfield Parrish A Retrospective
Laurence S. Cutler and Judy Cutler. Pomegranate, 1995. Maxfield Parrish is arguably the best known and most widely loved artists America has ever known.
