description: Artist Mike Wilks set out to depict as many words as possible in twenty-six images corresponding to the alphabet. His four-year painting odyssey resulted in a suite of magnificent compilations, all minutely detailed, masterfully rendered, and slightly surreal. Each image contains dozens, if not hundreds, of items all starting with the same letter.The Ultimate Alphabet: Complete Edition brings two best-selling volumes together in this deluxe slipcase edition. One volume presents the paintings with introductory text by the artist; the other offers numbered drawings and alphabetical lists of words. Accompanied by the key, you’ll delight in identifying all that Wilks has drawn—7,819 objects at last count!
