- Summary
- Born in Taranaki in 1938, artist Graham Percy built a career on the closely observed detail. He spent his apprentice years in Auckland before moving to London, where with his photographer wife, Mari Mahr, he created a studio-home. This book presents an account of Percy's life and art through sketches and bookshelves, touching on childhood losses and adult nostalgia.
