OIL PAINTINGS OF M.K. PENNER

 Leigh Macfarlane's newest non-fiction release

 

M.K. Penner was a 737 Captain by trade and a Canadian landscape oil painter into the wee hours of the morning.  He started painting to heal from the death of his brother and continued painting for the next six decades.  This art memoir contains his story and his tips and also includes more than one hundred and fourty images of that artist's work and life.
