Painter and lithographer Hansen has worked for over 30 years from his home on Vashon Island, Washington. Along with humorous self-portraits and peculiar female nudes, the forest, flowers, and vegetable gardens are the subjects of his work, an interesting commingling of a classical European sensibility and the minimalism of Japanese woodblock prints. This book beautifully reproduces 101 b&w etchings and 16 in color. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
