"In the playful style that characterizes his life and art, artist Tommy Simpson takes a look at his youth in a small Midwestern town and its influence on his colorful, high-spirited art."--BOOK JACKET.

"Tommy Simpson is a woodworker, sculptor, furniture maker, painter, and poet acclaimed for his witty and joyous interpretations of Americana - a true original in the art world. Two Looks to Home is a most unusual illustrated memoir/art book, illuminating his unique sensibility and how the work of an artist comes to be.

With seasoned insight and humor, and many a pun, Simpson sprinkles autobiographical vignettes, childhood candids, and wry poems amid the sparkling reproductions of his ingenious creations and Klee-like paintings."--BOOK JACKET.

"Two Looks to Home concludes with a chapter on a full-size "garden" of Simpson's fantasy sculptures that he is creating for an exhibition entitled "Garden of the Heart." It will open at the American Craft Museum in New York City in June 2000 and travel around the country."--BOOK JACKET.
