Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost forty years after artist Alice Steer Wilson (1926-2001) wrote a message on the back of one of her paintings, this book offers an intimate view of her art. She enjoyed an undisputed role in the renaissance of Cape May, New Jersey. Known as "Mrs. Cape May," Wilson painted en plein air to capture the changing light on Victorian cottages, inns and hotels. She was hailed as a patron of preservationists and a colorist who conveyed the intrinsic character of a seaside resort fallen on hard times. This catalogue presents over 220 images from her career and invites the reader into an intimate view of the painter's life. It is the first publication of this scope, from the inside view of the artist's daughter and collaborator, the writer Janice Wilson Stridick. 128 pages, 229 illustrations, 208 in color
