I recently had the pleasure of reviewing The Landscapes, by Richard Schmid. A large book, comprised of over 300 reproductions interspersed with Mr.Schmid's commentary and trenchant observations. This is not a How-To book, but rather a retrospective of a lifetime of landscape painting work. Mr. Schmid has two more books in this series planned, one of still life and one of figures and portraits.
My review is entitled A Life in Landscape and is in the current issue of Fine Art Connoisseur, July August 2010.
This brilliant artist is my all time favourites. His work is simply stunning.I have a couple of his books and a DVD. Extremely expensive to buy but real gems.
