Williams's work overflows with light. Luminous beings populate glowing castles in the sky. Massive stone carvings set off the lightness of living sparks. The mysterious inhabitants of these lands and skies shine even against the daylight.The skies and forests of these magical lands evoke Maxfield Parrish. Although Williams lacks some of Parrish's delicacy, he brings huge energy and a glimpses into his personal mythology. Each image could be a snapshot from a different story, but it's clear that all of those stories take place in the same imagined world.If you wish that the world and people in it were more than just what's visible, or if you're sure that they are, this painting might give a glimpse of what that could be. I haven't found profundity in this collection, but I have found a lot to enjoy.-- wiredweird

Oh My!! This is a book one could get lost in. This book is more than just beautiful art, it is a visceral experience. Each page found me peering in and then completely drawn forward into a world and a storyline of wonder and awe. Certain pieces caused such a stirring, a longing - like homesickness for a place that I seem to know so well but have never actually been to in *this* life. The Temple of the Moon brought me to tears. Thank you, Gilbert Williams for sharing such 'otherly inspired' beauty.

Thank you so much, I've loved his work for 25 yrs. and this book was very well cared for by it's previous owner. Thanks!
