Imprisoned artist Michael Lee Ford has recently released a book of his art entitled “The Isolated Art of Michael Lee Ford.” His drawings remind me of the work of author/artist Clive Barker and are very powerful and filled with detail. Much of the art from the book will also be displayed in a showing of prisoner art in Philadelphia. From the book jacket:  A fascinating look at the world through the mind's eye of a man serving 35 years in a Texas prison for a 1989 robbery. Confined to his cell 23 hours a day, he creates art to avoid madness. Featured in the 1999 documentary OUTSIDE THE LINES by Blue Rhino Pictures. Now, for the first time, his drawing have been collected and presented to the public. Peer into his mind...if you dare!
