Lawson Wood






Lawson Wood is another one of the many great illustrators that I had not heard of until recently. While in graduate school and on a trip to California , my group had the pleasure of visiting the home of Jane Eisenstat( I posted some images and info in an earlier post titled: A Day at the Eisenstats.) The Eisenstats have an amazing collection of illustration , and among the incredible paintings that grace the walls of their home , was an original Lawson Wood watercolor.

Here's something by Lawson Wood that's a little bit different in subject matter and technique. Thought you and the Eisenstadts might find it interesting:

I cannottfind any info on whether he went there and if he painted anything else on that theme.
