Painted Worlds

Sensual, spiritual and evocative, Jim Warren's art ranges from dreamy images of wild horses leaping in fluffy clouds to representations of fiery goddesses rising from exploding volcanoes. Self-taught, and for many years working in oils, he not only illustrated book covers, but won a Grammy for Best Album Package for Bob Seger's record Against the Wind. The varied assortment of beautiful and sometimes surreal paintings here comes from album artwork to more recent commercial posters and cards, and they all capture a profound sense of fantasy. Warren's fine originals and prints are in high demand all over the world, and he has won renown for his portraits of the stars--including one of The West Wing's Martin Sheen, included in this collection.
