Painting the Spirit Within

Painting the Spirit Within is much more than a collection of stunning watercolor paintings - it is also a visual expression of the joy inherent in the present moment and in the reverence for life. This book contains seventy-eight color plates of watercolor paintings featuring portraits, landscapes, and flowers from the Pacific Northwest. The images are accompanied by inspirational quotations from great visionaries, mystics, poets, artists, and writers. Also included is a section on the artistic process and the stages of a painting from beginning to end.
