Synopsis
Water to Paper, Paint to Sky is the first comprehensive retrospective of America's oldest living artist Tyrus Wong, whose groundbreaking work on Walt Disney's classic animation film Bambi influenced a generation of leading animators, including John Lasseter, Pete Docter, and Don Hahn. Tyrus Wong's ability to evoke powerful feeling in his art with simple gestural compositions continues to inspire each new generation of artists, and his influence can still be seen in movies today. "Tyrus Wong's sophistication of expression was a gigantic leap forward for the medium. Where other films were literal... Bambi was expressive and emotional. Tyrus painted feelings, not objects." -- John Lasseter, Academy-Award winning director Born in 1910 in Canton, China, Tyrus Wong immigrated as a young boy to the United States, where he has enjoyed a long, distinguished, and diverse artistic career as a prolific painter, illustrator, calligrapher, lithographer, muralist, designer, Hollywood sketch artist, ceramicist, and kitemaker. Tyrus is legendary for his innovative work on Walt Disney Studio's classic animation film Bambi , in which his singular vision and evocative, impressionistic concept art caught the eye of Walt Disney himself and influenced the movie's overall visual style.

    This was one satisfying purchase. I ordered a heavy, rather large-sized used book. Delivery was from the US to Germany. The book arrived today, without any trouble, after slightly less than two weeks (which is good average) in exactly the same condition as described, well-packed and also well-fixed within the package. (Which is rare these days, even with brand new books sent by large commercial retailers.) I am quite delighted. Based on this purchase I highly recommend this seller. Thank you!!

    Beautiful book exactly as described. Shipping was lightening FAST. Wonderful seller who answered the questions I had immediately (on a Sunday) and took the time to send me a picture for more detailed information. The book was expertly packed and taped extra good since the book was heavy. The extra care in packing such a heavy book was greatly appreciated. Seller had the book priced at a bargain and I was thankful for the opportunity to purchase it. I highly recommend this seller. AAAA++++++.

    It is hard to find a decent online book seller, so I was very impressed with my experience. Item was reasonably priced, new as described, shipping was priced fairly and fast, and most notable the book was packaged properly for shipment (secured to card backing to prevent damage in transit). Great experience!
