About this title

Synopsis

Peculiar, hilarious, odd, beautiful-all these words describe the remarkable art of Parks Reece of Livingston, Montana.

This book-the first collection of Reece's artwork-is destined to become an instant classic!

Review

"A truly extraordinary artist." -- Jim Harrison, author and screenwriter

"His paintings are collector's items." -- Wildlife Art News

"In the hands of Parks Reece, fine art becomes fun once again, and God bless him for that." -- William Hjorstberg, novelist.

"Parks Reece takes the fear and intimidation out of fine art and serves it up with a sense of humor." -- The Montana Standard (Montana), 2002

Hjortsberg said, "In the hands of Parks Reece, fine art becomes fun once again..." This book embodies that sentiment." -- Big Sky Journal

NATURAL SURREALIST...In one richly hued, lushly, even mysteriously textured painting after another, Reece seduces the eye and zaps the mind -- The Chicago Tribune, December 29, 2002

The book is, first, beautifully composed, with each painting giving way to the next in elegant, whimsical fashion. -- The Billings Gazette (Montana), 2002

Think what would happen if you crossed a fine wildlife painter with Gary Larson of "Far Side" cartoon fame... -- Winston-Salem Journal
