There is something magical about the Jersey Shore. You know this if you have spent a summer sailing its waters, sunning on its beaches, collecting shells along its ocean, and walking barefoot on the creaky floors of its Victorian houses. Many generations have been drawn to the Shore, adding to its magic, leaving imprints on its history and traditions. In "At the Shore with Dick LaBonté," the Bay Head artist has gathered more than 30 paintings that evoke the Shore of times past. Drawing upon olde photographs and tales told by "clam-diggers," the artist has added his own creative sense of humor. Each painting in this long-awaited collection opens a door to the reader's nostalgic imagination. The pictures are enlivened by anecdotes and amusing descriptions written by the artist. The paintings features in this book represent some fifteen years' work. The originals, painted in acrylics, are owned by individuals, organizations and the artist's family. Many of Dick LaBonté's paintings have been reproduced in limited edition prints that can be found in homes throughout the country.. Book Condition: Very Good. Binding: Hardcover. Jacket: Very Good
