Product Description
Join Victoria artist Robert Amos on a fascinating insider s tour of studios on Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands where some of Canada s best-known artists do their work. Over the past 15 years, Amos has interviewed and photographed these artists from his artist and art-writer perspective.

He combines these with a biography of each artist, insights into each one s artistic process and an example of one of their completed works

I didn't understand how distracting and disappointing the photo collages would be until I received this book. Instead of straight-on or wide lend photos of the studios, the collages fracture the images just enough to REALLY bug the eye. I bought this book not because I like the products of most of the artists, they are conservative for the most part. I bought it so I could look at the studios in detail which I find inspiring, no matter what I feel about the product. The division of the photos and added slops of paint by Amos ruin this for me. The photos are not as disjointed as ones by David Hockney for example but they are not necessary, unless Mr. Amos just had to put his mark on them.
