Industry Reviews
"Arranged in more or less chronological order, the book traces his use of color, which seems to become more extravagant with the passage of time, and the increasingly mysterious arrangement of objects in his photo-perfect still lifes....Many of these drawings and paintings combine the precision of hyperrealism with the lush texture of a centuries-old classic, leaving one to ponder how, say, a rendering of a goat--each strand of hair taken into account--can mirror reality so acutely and, at the same time, transcend it."
