Those drawings would look good in a full history book about the Etruscan civilization.

I'm going to finally go ahead and get "Imaginative Realism".

I love the drawings and the whole process sounds like a warm blanket you could wrap yourself in and is very encouraging to me.Maybe this would have been in the 80's? It seems like I got that issue in my subscription . It's fun to just to contemplate what that adventure must have been like!

Mr. Gurney, you could illustrate an entire history encyclopedia. From the prehistoric age and onwards. I’m sure your degree in archaeology would make you a qualified writer for it too.

'Imaginative Realism' is one of my favorite art books. I learned so much from reading it! I'm constantly recommending it to my students.
