Pelicans

Walter Anderson is recognized as one of the major American watercolorists--a select group that includes John Singer Sergent, Winslow Homer, Arthur Demuth, and John Marin. This book presents seventeen of Walter Anderson's pen and ink drawings of pelicans as well as an essay by Anderson on his time spent roughing it on Louisiana's Chandeleur Islands amongst the pelican communities he had come to study and draw. His daughter, Mary Anderson Pickard, adds a felicitous preface about her father's interest in the pelicans as artistic subject and the natural history of the Chandeleur Islands.Anderson, Walter is the author of 'Pelicans', published 2004 under ISBN 9780932274632 and ISBN 0932274633.
