Essence Carlton Lewis Sampson

The book Essence is paintings by Alfred Ortega inspired by the dynamic between man and woman presented with Carlton Lewis Sampson's poetic perspective on the emotional dynamics of the situation expressed in each image. Their collaboration reflects their personal bias on the essential aspect of life. Like relationships between men and women, the painting-poem paired combinations are fraught with pitfalls and laced with joy seeking congruence as a set. Essence is a 52-page full color collection of twenty painting-poem paired combinations reflecting on situational dynamics between women and men
