KENTUCKY Land of Beauty
This
book has been designed as a celebration of Kentucky and its people,
to show the rest of the world why Kentuckians are so proud of
their beautiful state.
Come
along with acclaimed artist Gary Akers on an unforgettable journey
into the heart of the blue grass state, transported by a remarkable
collection of over 100 egg tempera, drybrush and watercolor paintings.
Akers has a clear
love for his home state, capturing it in the featured regions
of Kentucky, including the Kentucky coal fields, the thoroughbred
farms of central Kentucky, and the broad, verdant fields of western
Kentucky.
Akers also paints
Kentucky's beloved historic landmarks like Bardstown's My Old
Kentucky Home, Shaker Village at peasant Hill, and Louisville's
Churchill Downs.
Complementing the
paintings are interesting notes and commentaries from the artist.
The perfect and indispensable
resource for any Akers collector or admirer of the artist's paintings.
