is an exuberant, luxuriously produced book of over fifty paintings--each of them reproduced in full colour--by the much heralded Canadian painter Steve Driscoll. Where Driscoll's very popular first book, published three years ago, examined the development of his earlier abstract work, this new, larger, handsomely designed volume showcases his more recent work as a maker of brilliantly conceived, gloriously opulent, epically vast landscape-paintings--most of which are derived from his vigorous hiking and camping trips through the Canadian wilderness. The book features a text by well-known Canadian writer and art critic, Gary Michael Dault, who has provided an incisive, lyrical prose-poem text to accompany each of the works.
