The cover is light blue with a darker blue design wrapped around. The title is printe in white on the front cover and down the spine. The inside of each cover is a photograph. Pages: 4 5-63 1. "Like many great artists Paul Waters's paintings tell a story. Seemingly simple these snapshots capture the ethos of a specific time and place. Like Norman Lewis and Jacob Lawrence Paul rendered compositions in semi-abstract form. In them silhouettes of human bodies take on animal characteristics. Birdlike forms float across the picture plane. Cutting from the pages of magazines and pasting to the canvas Waters creates mathematically balanced monochromatic vignettes. Composed between 1965 and 1973 during the height of the Civil Rights Movement his paintings not only convey images of the African American community but also are closeups of intimate movements in his personal and professional life."
