“What follows is the sum and substance of a remarkable year in a great artist’s life—
Alexander Wainwright. He was at the pinnacle of his career when his art took a strange turn and I began to fear he had become possessed by some devil. But I was only beginning to understand the power of his passionate and hungry spirit, which nearly devoured him in his search for his new art—and his new life.
James Helmsworth, [art dealer for Alexander Wainwright] in The Drawing Lesson.
Enter for the giveaway of ten autographed copies of The Drawing Lesson, the first in The Trilogy of Remembrance starting on July 31st until August 31st, 2014.”
