Eloquent essays and poems by Lillian Vallee complement the photographs. Capturing the drama in places that most people only drive past on their way to another destination  Lorancs photographs shimmer with a vision that is at once romantic and magical  yet tinged with loneliness  melancholy  and longing. But ultimately we feel the artists relationship with the land  a connection that is full of love  beauty  and above all  reverence. These are portraits of places and moments deep in the heart of the Central Valley  places that resonate in the photographers art. Stark visions of freshwater marshes  valley oak woodlands  rain-swollen streams  and other scenes reveal themselves to us. Visually stunning and sometimes ephemeral  they are testaments to the workings of the human heart and psyche. Two-Hearted Oak will delight anyone with an appreciation for nature and the art of photography. Roman Lorancs visionary reflections are those of a unique artist whose palette captures light and form and transforms them into images reflecting a depth of feeling rarely found in nature photography. It is a fitting homage to the Central Valley.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44960136560693,"sku":"ByrdShop_1890771686","price":96.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781890771683.jpg?v=1770392204","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/twohearted-oak-the-photography-of-roman-loranc","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
