ASIN: 1885183313 |
Book Description
During years of study and exploration, Stephen Lyman discovered his calling: to paint the wilderness with passionate commitment, and to communicate the joy found there in each image. Through his beautiful paintings and extraordinary photography he celebrates the importance of the wilderness as a whole.Into the Wilderness is more than a splendid art book. With it, you can journey with Lyman into a wilderness very few have experienced. You can share the sensation of being in the wild--exploring, discovering, studying, and enjoying the all-encompassing beauty of unspoiled nature.
Into the Wilderness features Stephen Lyman's favorite paintings, as well as many unpublished paintings and sketches. In addition, the artist includes more than one hundred of his own photographs showing details and overviews of the natural world that inspires his paintings. Through Lyman's paintings and photography, and in the words of writer and former Sierra magazine editor Mark Mardon, each of us can experience the deep quiet of the woods, find serenity at the water's edge, climb mountains, and be completely at home in the world of the wilderness.

How to grow a chair: The art of tree trunk topiary
Richard Reames Manufacturer: Arborsmith Studios ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items: ASIN: 0964728001 |
Customer Reviews:
If you are into unique landscaping this is the book.......2001-12-29
Most of us are used to the chicken wire mesh topiary scupltures - think Rockefeller Center, your local zoo, etc. This book blows those examples away.
If you want to see a really unique application of this book check out Bonfante Gardens, in Gilroy, California (South San Francisco Bay Area). They have many mature trees that are all grown intertwined. They are textbook examples of how inspiring this book can be to grow your own.
If you are really into the eco thing, you can even grow your own true "tree" house - where the walls are living trees. Truly amazing, but I think I'll stick with the more ornamental designs to wow the neighbors.
