The Grand Scale: New Watercolors by Alexander Creswell

A beautifully illustrated catalogue of new watercolors by famed British watercolorist Alexander Creswell. Breaking the boundaries of traditional watercolor painting by creating the largest size watercolors on a single sheet ever, Creswell continues to elevate the medium of watercolor to new heights. An interesting conversation with the artist, led by Dr. Gregory Hedberg, provides a fascinating understanding of the manner in which the works are created and where the artist's inspirations come from. Creswell's largest collector is HM Queen Elizabeth II, and he has spent time traveling with other members of the British royal family. He was recently given the honor of painting HM The Queen Mother Lying in State, the first time ever this prestigious honor was bestowed upon a watercolorist.
