ART BOOK AND AUTOBIOGRAPHY BY JOY GUSH, ARTIST
Paintings by Joy Gush reflect the style used by 19th century Impressionists. Inspired by Claude Monet s paintings of the French countryside, Joy has developed her own distinctive style in painting the countryside of Devonshire, England, where she was born. In this book 70 photos are shown of 550 out in the world, somewhere. Perhaps you will see one you own The appealing thatched cottages with their gardens of flowers, the colorful quilt effect of fields laced together by stone walls or hedgerows with wild flowers, mysterious Dartmoor (featured in Agatha Christie novels), magnificent cliffside vistas and secluded beaches-all emerge on canvas as scenes from Joy s memories of childhood in England.
