Alchemy at 55

Kevin Max been writing poetry since my 20's. He began painting at 55. It started with the notion of art therapy and developed into full blown obsession. This is the public document of that work, harkening back to another poetry and painting book of his published in 1994, titled At The Foot Of Heaven. However, at that time, the paintings were done by a friend and local legend, Jimmy Abegg. This time, both the paintings and the poetry sit squarely on Kevin's shoulders for all to see and critique and ponder. The work is from the first 4 months of painting, starting in February of 2023; the poetry all within the last 4 years. The author hope this book finds a perfect spot nestled on a coffee table or library vault.
