Art Inspired by a Rainbow

In 2016, Alan R. Massen, the Norfolk watercolour artist, decided to produce this book which he hopes will take the reader on a pictorial journey using some of his favourite paintings and artworks. He believes that every picture tells a story and by using all the colours of the rainbow he hopes that the reader will be inspired to imagine the story behind each painting. I have been very lucky to have been born at a time when education, travel and finances has been available to me and this has permitted me to see many beautiful places, people, animals and other things which I have then tried to either capture in a watercolour painting, photograph or in more recent years by writing about my experiences and memories. This is the ninth book that I have had published. I am very grateful to my publisher Rainbow Publications UK for giving me the opportunity for my books to be read. I have, in the past, written about my garden, my watercolour paintings and took my readers on travels to such places as the Greek island of Skiathos, my Norfolk home, England the country of my birth and we have gone a Mardle and a Troshin' together. Now it is time to return to my watercolour paintings and artwork once more and for the reader to discover the story behind my images: "Art Inspired by a Rainbow"…
