“A gorgeous chronicle of a versatile southern American artist.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

In a beautifully crafted biography, Hester Bass and Caldecott Honor winner E. B. Lewis pay homage to the most famous American artist you’ve never heard of. Reclusive nature-lover Walter Anderson spent weeks at a time on an uninhabited island, sketching and painting the natural surroundings and animals to create some of his most brilliant watercolors, which he kept hidden during his lifetime. A gorgeous chronicle of a versatile southern American artist… Superb watercolor technique, dramatic angles and moody shifts of light.
