Reviews
If you are searching for voices in art that speak for mysticism, creativity and depth, go no further than this book. A smart book connecting the lives of 3 key artists who are often over looked for their male counterparts, this book is essential reading. Also, if you are into patterns in nature, alchemy, inner transformation through the creative process or healing, there's not a better collect to start with as an introduction to these three artists.
