The authors have 40 of the artist's renderings which in their opinion, range from the bizarre to the whimsical. The one whimsical drawing chosen- the flying turtle would make a nice modern day "screen saver!" The choice of illustrations was based on three factors :
(I) Mr. Mair's comment that" . . . many are distorted human visages."
(2) journal space considerations; and
(3) expectations of how they would appear in black and white, rather than as the original watercolor.
