BR O A DSI DE SET choice of 6 broadsides $12.50 The broadside is a historic form of communication.

EFFECT OF COLOR by vasily kandinsky $80.00 Effect of Color fits into a broad collection of Thornwillow publications that celebrate the lives and works of great artists and authors.

He separates colors by whether they are warm or cold, light or dark, and whether they extend to the spectator or pull away in regards to their vibrancy and spiritual associations. Like his paintings, Kandinsky’s theory looks beyond the physical into the abstract.
