When I Was Thirty-Five I Had a Very Good Year

The Life and Works of James Edgar Templin

This is a book about works of art from an author that knows very little about art. I cannot explain these pieces in terms of artistic technique or style, because I lack the necessary education, training and experience. Instead I review these various types and pieces of artwork as an aficionado, writer and son.

While I did not attain his artistic knowledge, and I did not take his craft, I did inherit his creative energy.

It is creativity that will solve our problems.
