Weird but wonderfulll!!!, Jun 11 2004
This review is from: It Feeds Itself: The Art Of Eric White (Paperback)
Hoo-eee! is what I said when I got through looking at this book. I didn't actually say it, on account I was in an 'alternative' bookstore in my godniece's neighborhood, and I didn't want all those howyoucallits looking crosswise. These pitchers are beautiful, strange, and haunting, like in the way LaToya Janckson is. Imagine those big-eyed kid paintings only if painted by the drippy-clock guy, or if he was on goofy tablets. At anyhoo, if you like surreal art dont miss this one. I dont know what they teach at Rhode Island art school these days but it aint "Draw Tippy!"

Beautiful Book!, Dec 5 2003
By A Customer
I loved this book! The paintings are amazing, the design is beautiful, the writings by Gail Zappa and Viggo Mortensen are wild and there's a cool "inspirations" list in the back that really gives an idea of where the artist is coming from. Anyone who is a fan of Eric White's work should get this book. But I think it will also appeal to anyone with an interest in figurative painting or art in general.
