The artist-author writes ''The Pacific is the most colourful and fascinating part of this earth; painting it was like dipping one's hands into a casket of jewels.'' McIntyre's travels throughout the Pacific included Fiji, Tahiti, Mexico, Hawaii, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore, Australia, New Guinea, his New Zealand home, and Antarctica. As he travelled he painted, and his palette and technique responded with vitality and delight to the people and the places he encountered.
