Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Jenny Read was an articulate and talented artist who died too young in 1976. This book comprised of letters, journal entries, dreams, drawings and photographs captures her life as an artist and woman. She was a talented artist in San Francisco in the Seventies and she was very much part of the art scene there. She also stood apart from aspects of the counterculture-she attended Church services and rejected the cynicism of many of her peers. She was passionate about her art and about growing as an artist. This book captures her unique art and gentle spirit. (She is portrayed in the Dancing Saints Mural at St. Gregory's Church in San Francisco.)
