So Holly's right, there's quite a bit of text, and it's not just a picture book. But I think it's got enough imagery to satisfy us! :)sfgirlbybayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07603149930928495039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30414727.post-5689012526373291912007-05-02T14:09:00.000-07:002007-05-02T14:09:00.000-07:00Isn't it wonderful to come across someone so remar...Isn't it wonderful to come across someone so remarkably talented! <BR/>I was visiting Tara's site over at *Terramia* and noticed Broadhurst's exotic bird illustration, and this re-introduced my interest in her. After some of my own research, I have become somewhat fixated on her mysterious death more than anything. But she is a legend, not only in Australia, but worldwide. Signature Prints, as well as our own infallible interest in her, keep her talented works of art alive and well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30414727.post-66486561917212994122007-05-02T13:51:00.000-07:002007-05-02T13:51:00.000-07:00The book is a biography not a coffee table book.

It is difficult to get such great images anywhere else as Signature Prints keeps a tight leash on the images and their website doesn't give the big lush feel you get from her work in real life.Jo Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07683640677680042467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30414727.post-10450315935258069502007-05-02T10:12:00.000-07:002007-05-02T10:12:00.000-07:00Excellent post, victoria!

It's amazing what a little reinvention can do for your many careers. I say good for Florence to do what she did when women had no careers let alone a choice. And hooray for a woman who starts a creative career in her older years.

I don't know, all the reading freaked me out a little, it was a bit overwhelming to flip through it. I'll venture forth and read, thanks to you Vic!Blogging Masterclasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03981165357300855260noreply@blogger.com
