when words get in the way three stories of beauty, integrity & freedom by John “Charlie” Hanson Sometimes the most powerful messages are those communicated without words. Using a drawing pen and watercolors only (no words), Charlie, with sophisticated innocence inspires us to recognize beauty, do the right thing and celebrate freedom! Hardcover with dust jacket, 52 pages. TRISTAN Publishing
$18.95 ISBN 978-0-931674-81-5
Charlie’s works are simple, yet artistic and telling; this is his objective. Although his work may appear a collection of elementary, watercolor-infused ink sketches to some, the message Charlie conveys is one words cannot precisely articulate. He provides a word, “beauty,” “integrity,” and “freedom” prior to each of the three sections of works, but readers will discover that the paintings represent a plethora of abstract concepts, open to interpretation. Both Charlie and TRISTAN Publishing wish to share with the world the complexities of fundamental concepts, celebrating innocence and virtue. - ForeWord Book Reviews (August, 2010)
