Painting the Spirit of Nature

Painting the Spirit of Nature is a beautiful book by Maxine Masterfield. Her focus is unusual techniques for the abstract representation of nature using watercolors and inks. I don't use either of those media, but I still find the ideas and her paintings inspirational. Unfortunately the book is out of print, and used copies are expensive. Every now and then I'll see one available for under $20. Snap it up if you find it at a reasonable price!
