          Art of West Texas Women

          A Celebration

          by Kippra D. Hopper and Laurie Churchill

          Introduction by Pamela Brink

          Price: $29.95

          ISBN: 9780896726697

          Pub Date: April 2010

          Representing at once a diversity of style, medium, and scale and an intersection of inspiration and response, Art of West Texas Women celebrates twenty women visual artists living and working in an expansive, rugged landscape—the vast western half of Texas, far from the dynamics of urban art communities and large national markets. Without attempting to serve as a comprehensive catalog—impossible considering the breadth of activity in a huge region—the book is a sampler of creative expression.
