In this colorful and carefully curated book, Don Minnick, Jan Fitzhugh and Jim McJunkin give thirty-
seven Texas Hill Country artists, primarily based in or around Wimberley, Texas an altogether different
voice to explain their creative impulses, the things that drive them, and ignite within them the spirit to
imagine. The authors allow the artists to tell their own stories with accompanying photos, and all of them
are entertaining and revealing. Through their own words, we get to know who is represented by the
signature on a drawing, a painting or a photograph, and we get to see them at work in the studios where
they pursue their passion of making art and connection, in the words of the authors, “the most human of
all our intentions.” This is the first book in a series that will follow a similar format for others in the
creative realm. If the subsequent books in the series are like this volume, they will be valuable additions
to the bookshelves of all of us who appreciate art as well as strong, interesting narratives.
