"Lavishly illustrated with the art of Jack Shadbolt - 220 illustrations, including 110 in colour... In chronicling Shadbolt's development, the author has created a portrait that gives an insightful look at the nature of the artistic sensibility, enriched with liberal excerpts from the painter's own writings on art and the life of an artist." - from dust jacket.
