Reviews:
"Swedish Folkart is a beautiful, informative
book that has been truly needed for some time. I will
treasure it."
-- Nina Ehlers, Lakewood, CO
"Congratulations to both you and Gudmund
(Årseth, Graphic Designer) on your new book.
Your best ever, I think, I am very impressed with all your
knowledge."
-- Sigmund Årseth, Heggenes, Norway
"I like this book. As one who is just learning
the Swedish Folk painting this is going to be a well-used
resource. The book is full of color pictures that are
beautifully done. The book has pictures of old pieces
and pieces recently done by Diane. I appreciate that she
has listed the sources for inspiration for each of the
pieces that she has done. I like history and she gives good
background information on the early artists, styles,
materials used, how to prepare woodenware and procedures.
Those with more painting experience will also equally
benefit from this book."
