She documents his personal and artistic life in a detailed biographic sketch, and her extensive essay "Research Printmaker and Mad-Dog Attack Artist" examines the evolution of his printmaking career, focusing on his technique, iconography, and his place in American printmaking. The catalogue documents all 359 of Colescott's editioned prints, providing title, date, media, dimensions,and selected exhibition history and collections for each print, along with comments and anecdotes by Chapin and Colescott."-- DJ.
