5.0 out of 5 stars Michael Parkes is amazing!, December 20, 2002
This review is from: Michael Parkes: Stone Lithographs-Bronze Sculptures 1982-1996 (Paperback)
What can I say? I don't know how to best describe Michael Parkes artwork. Beautiful, imaginative, surreal? Michael Parkes has a lot of influence from master artists such as Klimt, but has created a world which is uniquely his own. Lovely winged maidens (often with mechanical wings) pose with elegant grace along with animals and mythological creatures. Men wear elegant masks, looking like sensual harlequins. What makes Parkes so fascinating is his ability to draw off many sources of classical myth and complie them into one image, it is not unusual in his world to see a Grecian style angel being visited by an egypian style feline, and yet it all works very harmoniously together. This book is wonderful eyecandy for all those drawn to imaginative, sensual mythology. I keep it for inspiration.

This review is from: Michael Parkes: Stone Lithographs-Bronze Sculptures 1982-1996 (Paperback)
THIS IS A GREAT SAMPLE OF MICHEAL'S WORK
WITHOUT THE HEAVY PRICE TAGS OF OTHER VOLUMES.
AND DAN BROWN DID JUST REFER TO ONE OF PARKES'
PAINTINGS IN "THE LOST SYMBOL".
