" An Artist Walks THE TRAIL OF BEAUTY "


By Paul D. Hammersten

  " Paul D. Hammersten's memoir glows with affirmation in words and pictures; celebration of natural beauty of remote mountains, lakes, and rivers; grateful tributes to human courage and enduring loyalties among friends; humble praise of creature strength and grace. "


  Along The Trail

Paul's art began under the tutelage of his Northern Cheyenne friend Frederick Dale Seminole in 1970 in Lame Deer, Montana on the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation.


THE ROBE OF BEAUTY
was painted with acrylic dyes on hand tooled and carved leather and was done in part on the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation.
  Farther Along

Paul continues along " The Trail Of Beauty " in the eastern far North, paddling the remote water-ways once explored by the legendary VOYAGEURS.


 
   
 

Beauty before me
Beauty behind me
Above and below me hovers the beautiful
I am surrounded by it
I am immershed in it
In my youth was I aware of it
And...in old age I shall walk quietly THE TRAIL OF BEAUTY
