Ebook: Beautiful Sights and Sensations - Small Collections of Native American and Other Arts

Within these pages resides what you might call the “Confessions of an Impecunious Art Lover.” As a typically low–paid state–college science professor, I nevertheless enjoy contacting—as in collecting, viewing, and touching—affordable, and even some not so affordable, pieces of art. This book displays and describes many of the pieces that I have been privileged to hold, view, touch, wear, appreciate, and enjoy across several concurrent collections. May it convey to you my hope that you, too, can participate in art this way at one level or another. (Many reputable sources of art are available; see the inside back cover for a few of them.)
