by Anne Newlands
In a text that skillfully blends selections from Carr’s own writins with illustrated commentary, Newlands creates a delightful look at one of Canada’s best-known artists. This book will lead you to the West Coast, where Carr spent much of her life in a world of richly drawn First Nations villages and totems, dark, haunting forests, wild beaches and vast skies. There, you will meet the unconventional woman -” the little old lady on the edge of nowshere,” as she called herself – who helped define the face of Canadian art.
