An award-winning watercolorist and dedicated teacher explains and demonstrates his approach to painting and philosophy of art. "The artist," writes Webb, "lives by his wits. Few pursuits are so totally dependent on an individual's internal resources. Our culture is dominated by mechanical and electronic triumphs. Against these depersonalizing forces, each artist fights for a personal life. Each is a solitary worker, making works which are addressed to the public, and receiving the benefit of identity. No matter how small the artist's garden, it is a personal plot, relatively free from the boll weevils of outward politics and the crabgrass of the computer."
