Review: "American artist Elizabeth Peyton is one of the most outstanding artists of her generation, a painter known for her intimate figurative portraits of youthful, romantic individuals ranging from friends to historical figures to world music celebrities. Her work is intensely personal, but the subject becomes an intimate of both audience and artist." "Compiled by Peyton herself, this book chronicles ten years of inspiration, her works in many media, and her exhibitions, revealing the evolution of this exceptional artist who has been highly influential, in the words of the New York Times, in bringing "a return to beauty in art, a resurgence of figurative work, and a revival of painting.""--BOOK JACKET.
