The definitive work on Stephen Huneck's art

To aptly describe in text one Stephen Huneck's art, it might be best to rely on the succinct quote from Arts and Antiques Magazine: "If Walt Disney had ever met Rene Magritte and the two had decided to make furniture together, they'd have produced something close to Stephen Huneck's work." However, for an even better description, turn to Laura Beach's definitive Art Of Stephen Huneck: it packs in full-page, color reproductions of his work - sometimes as full as 2-page spreads - and accompanies these with clear details on the artist and his works. Highly recommended as the definitive work on Stephen Huneck's art.
