Bathsheba Monk

Clarence H. Carter Bathsheba Monk

Clarence H. Carter is an American Artist usually pegged as a Regionalist, although his broad exposure to travel and study imbues his art with a sophistication and complexity not often found in that school of the heartland. This book, written by his daughter-in-law, is an intimate look at the last thirty years of Carter's life (from her point of view) as well the paintings of his that shaped her life for the last twenty years. All artists are complex, and this book proves that Carter was no different. He had his roots in the heartland, but his spirit traveled throughout the universe.
