Synopsis
Joan Brady has made a name for herself with her exquisite watercolor paintings. In her work, masterful craftsmanship and boldness are combined with a subtle, feminine attention to beauty-the beauty of everyday life. With exactitude and tenderness she captures this quality of timelessness and depth in the spur of the moment that is matched by her poems and prose pieces that follow the artist's seasons of life and work in four chapters: Home, Studio, Garden, Voyaging Out. This autobiographical book of paintings and writings, Joan Brady's second artobiography, takes the reader through intimate celebrations and reflections of daily life. With 99 color plates, this lush monograph captures the struggles and challenges of an artist's vocation, moments of humor and illumination, and sensuous dreams and visions of spiritual fulfillment.

Review
This is her second "artobiography" and provides insights into the art's daily life and challenges By Midwest Book Review on February 13, 2009 Format: Hardcover Joan Brady produces fine watercolor paintings capturing everyday life, from meals on the table to kitchen preparations, pets sleeping, garden scenes, and more. Her home-oriented still lifes are gorgeous, capturing the moment and especially pointed when paired with her poems and prose works that follow her seasons and life. This is her second "artobiography" and provides insights into the art's daily life and challenges. Perfect for college-level art libraries strong in watercolor representations and artist autobiographies. --Midwest Book Review (on Amazon.com)
Joan's beautiful book reminds me of my first love, Claude Monet. Even those her pictures are in watercolor, the delicate lines and beautiful colors encouraged me to linger and reflect on life's simple gifts. Joan's unusual combination of wisdom and art is inspirational. I am so grateful that this gifted American artist shares her talent with the rest of us mortals! Her book is a treasure! --By Lo Anne Mayer (on Amazon.com)
