About the Book
Twisted came to being through many years of trying to keep a handle on things in my daily life. With problems mounting these drawings came out of my me in an artistic flow that lasted a couple of years, God only knows were some of these came from. Each piece had no planning, they just went where they went. Some started as doodles that I would continue each day. Many of the images have hidden pictures in them. Some of the pictures are continuous pieces of rope or vine (or snake),that you can follow, or try to follow all the way around. You can see more of my creations if you visit my site at: www.williamreed.smugmug.com Enjoy! Art will never hurt you.
About the Author
William Oliver Reed was born in a small town in Northern Illinois in 1952. After high school he married, raised a family of three children but never was able to pursue an education in the arts. He kept everything in the back of his mind and always looked at the world through the eye of an artist, completing only a few pieces of artwork when he had time. After losing his wife to Scleroderma in 2002, he has collected all of the images he produced over the years and started work on promoting his work and himself as an artist. This book is a compilation of 100 pieces that were created from 1998 to 2003. This artistic flow produced over 350 drawings, although they are similar in overall look, each has its own identity and intrigue. He places images within his drawings to further intrigue the viewer. Look deeply into his works and see ...what you can see.
