Artist's book by Merrill Wagner, "...for painters who might question the stability of conventional artists' materials." This tripartite photographic record documents the fading of various media, each section dedicated to one of the primary colors. "In the three preceding color projects, rectangles of different artists' materials were applied to an untreated cedar fence. They were photographed at intervals between August 1983 and June 1990. These notes on paint are the record of that passage of time."
