Walton Ford's watercolors of animals could be mistaken for 19th century natural science illustrations or British colonial paintings. Except they're not. Something strange and usually sinister is happening in each of Ford's woks whether its a wild turkey crushing a small parrot with its claw, a collection of monkeys wreaking havoc on a formally set dinner table. Painted with the deft technique of a technical artist, Ford's works vibrate with an intensity of uncanny familiarity; they are both reassuring in style and disturbing in content. This book provides an in-depth exploration of Walton Ford's oeuvre, it also includes a complete professional biography. This unlimited popular edition is for readers on a budget or who were unable to get their hands on the original limited Collector's and Art Edition.
