The Way of the Artist: Reflections on Creativity and the Life, Home, Art,and Collections of Richard Marquis

This thought-provoking collection of essays and photographs gives us an inside look at the life, art, home, and collections of legendary glass artist Richard Marquis. This eclectic journey of the eye and mind takes the reader from Melville to Proust, math to physics, metaphor to fantasy, while exploring Marquis' way of life - filled with creativity, lived in the present, and in tune with the rhythms of nature. Photographs capture his glass work and the collections of cast-off objects that fill his home - bowling balls, oil cans, fishing poles.
