Admiring a Caldwell painting is like peering through a portal to an alternate dimension; you can actually see the fantastic come to life in vivid detail. His creatures glisten in otherworldly sunlight, savagely ferocious and fully realised in every way. As for Caldwell's women -- they exude both an exotic beauty and an inner authority that sets them apart from the average bimbo warriors of lesser artists. His visions are at once unique and familiar, as if the incredible were an every day occurrence, and Clyde just happen to be there to capture it on canvas. This volume also contains a magnificent full-colour section which showcases Caldwell's unparalleled paintings.
