Showcasing a splendid collection of
72 of the spectacular paintings of
Peter Ellenshaw, this book traces the life,
travels and remarkable 60-year career of
this singular artist, from his early years in
the film industry, where he won an
Academy Award for his artistic efforts, to
his celebrated career in fine art.
The paintings of Peter Ellenshaw are
infused with life. Elegant floral gardens
beckon from the pastoral beauty of the
British Isles and the splendor of Monet's
Giverny. Embroidered with jewel-tones
and woven with atmosphere, majestic
views of Everest and the Tetons exhilarate.
Shimmering with celestial beams of sunlight
dancing over aquamarine waves, glowing
seascapes inspire. Pulsating with midnight
electricity and sparkling like gems, romantic
cities enchant,
With tributes from Diane Disney Miller,
Leonard Maltin, Fess Parker and others,
The Garden Within-The Art of Peter Ellenshaw
is a visual treasure of magnificent art by
"one of the painting masters of our age."
