The sixty-six images reproduced here all began as Polaroid photographs that Murray took in France, Maine, and California. She has transformed them into photographic paintings by manipulating the still-fluid emulsion of the pictures with toothpicks and other instruments in a process she calls "painterly photography." To encourage the reader to become acquainted with his or her own "artist within, " the book clearly explains what cameras, instruments, and materials to use to follow Murray's technique.
