註釋
From Pismo Beach to Paradise Cove, from Santa Barbara to the cliffs of Malibu, from Catalina Island to Zuma Beach, in this book you will see for the first time the many oil paintings and pastel works of Paul Jeffrey Davids that convey his impressions of the California Coast. In his early years of marriage, the artist and his wife lived on the beach in Marina del Rey, California, and traveled from Los Angeles to San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge and Sausalito with their friend, Alistair MacLean, who wrote "The Guns of Navarone." It was the beginning of a romance with the coastline of the Golden State in all its splendor, moods and seasons - with angry waves and jagged promontories, coves and caves, stony shores and sands of paradise. Colorful, original, and with a feeling of unsurpassed freedom, this art from the noted Hollywood producer / writer / director Paul Davids will inspire you and trigger your own imagination and wanderlust. This is the third in a series of books of Davids' art that have thus far explored New York and Paris, and also Mexico. Some of these works were exhibited in a show of many months at the Ritz-Carlton resort by the cliffs and beaches of Laguna Niguel. Known for his many "Star Wars" novels for Lucasfilm (co-authored with his wife, Hollace Davids) and for his production position in launching the original "Transformers" animated TV shows for Marvel Productions, Davids has produced and directed films about the arts (such as "Starry Night" from Universal, a tale about Vincent van Gogh which is sold in the gift store of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and also "The Artist & the Shaman.") He hopes his paintings and pastel art will prove to be part of the "positive consciousness" of which Vincent van Gogh wrote when he said that "What lives in art and is eternally living is first of all the painter and then the painting."
