Customer Reviews

Bad Condition not defined

Very disappointed in how this book was packaged. There was no protective bubble wrap, just a thin plastic wrap. but since the cover was torn in multiple places and the binding and edge faded from the sun, I assume they felt it was a waste to bother. Please provide more detailed descriptions of the book's condition in the future. Otherwise, that is the last one I will buy.

Wonderful Coffee Table Book

I am taking a watercolor class, and the instructor brought his copy of this book to class. I instantly fell in love with it. The paintings are beautiful, there is a bit of a story line, and the price was unbelievable. The book displays images painted in the South Eastern United States as the authors take their boats south through the inland water way all of the way to Key West. I highly recommend this masterpiece to anyone who likes art with a nautical feel.

Master painter

I finally put this big book in the scanner because I am a huge fan of the masterly paintings of Ray Ellis. This volume is BIG and a tremendous bargain for people interested in fine painting. Most of these works are watercolors, but there are a good number of oils represented as well. Ellis did his oils in the same impressionistic manner as his watercolors. There are lots of seascapes with boats here and in a size large enough so you can really see what his brushwork was like, which is so often lost in small reproductions. Watercolor painters can learn a lot by looking at Ellis' fine work.
