Synopsis

In "Winchell Price Master Painter" Kevin Robert Turner vividly outlines the brilliant career of Canadian painter Winchell Price. Price worked right next to some members of the Group of Seven (his studio was underneath where A.Y. Jackson and other famous artists honed their art) and has become renowned for his interpretation of the outdoor Canadian landscape. The “Canadian Scene” could be used to describe Price’s brilliant paintings of spring and studies of nature; skyscapes, being a specialty with cloud formations calmly displaying anticipation; seascapes of Lake Huron and Georgian Bay; landscapes covering every aspect of the change of seasons including the beauty of rural Ontario and Vancouver Island. INDIE READER'S 5-STAR Kevin Robert Turner’s exposition on Canadian artist Winchell Price is a compelling look at the unconventional painter’s life, told with honesty and compassion, by someone who knew Price and his work intimately. In WINCHELL PRICE MASTER PAINTER, Kevin Robert Turner offers an intimate glimpse into the life and work of the Royal Canadian Academy Artist with added first-hand stories from the years his parents who served as patrons and care-givers for the painter. Those who delve into WINCHELL PRICE MASTER PAINTER will find in his work the purity of the artist’s eye, and in his life, a mesmerizing glance of his psyche.
