The first coloring book devoted to the art of Marsden Hartley, the key figure in the development of American Modernist Art. Throughout his career as a painter he loved being in Nature, and felt most at home there. Making art was so important to him that he lived very simply, and mostly alone. He wrote poems about the experiences he was having, and made paintings that helped him express the strong feelings inside of himself. His paintings were sometimes of mountains or skies, sometimes of animals or flowers, or people or of ocean weaves - but in all these paintings he felt that the use of color...
The first coloring book devoted to the art of Marsden Hartley, the key figure in the development of American Modernist Art. Throughout his career as a painter he loved being in Nature, and felt most at home there. Making art was so important to him that he lived very simply, and mostly alone. He wrote poems about the experiences he was having, and made paintings that helped him express the strong feelings inside of himself. His paintings were sometimes of mountains or skies, sometimes of animals or flowers, or people or of ocean weaves - but in all these paintings he felt that the use of color was extremely important. After traveling in Europe, Hartley returned to the United States and painted some of its most beautiful places: on the beaches of Cape Cod, in the deserts of the American Southwest, and in the mountains and valleys of California. He even spent some time in Mexico. In each of these places the colors he experienced were different - not just the colors of the landscape, but the colors of the art made by the people who had lived there for many generations. He was fascinated by the art of the Native Americans, the Egyptians, the Bavarian Peasants, and the Aztecs. As a result, many of the patterns, images, and colors that occurred in their art became part of Hartley's art, too.
