Baumann writes with deep respect and affection for all those artists who strive for self-expression regardless of their level of skill. Written for artists and art enthusiasts, these writings are illustrated with Baumann’s original sketches and paintings that reveal the concepts a painter must know to capture it all.

“Dear Stefan,
Thank you so much for the book. But that is not why I had to write. On page 88, you tell how the mountain goat led you along a path away from everything and everyone. I got tears in my eyes as I realized this animal was sharing his favorite spot with you. He sensed you would know just what to do with this secret. No one else has probably ever gone as far as you went with him. In my mind I felt that it was actually a gift from God to you, because you love nature so much.

Thank you for putting that memory in your book. I will never forget that.”
-Jeanne Wudrick
