reflective and intelligent.......2007-05-18

I bought this book from Amazon on a whim, knowing nothing about the author/artist. I have since bought her first book and will buy her second book too. My only quibble is that there are no images of her work.
I loved her reflective intelligent commentary on her inner and outer life. She incorporates quotes from books she is reading and her thoughts on the subject as well as descriptions and opinions of people that she interacts with; and thoughts and feelings about her art, past and present and the exhibitions that she has participated in.
Highly recommended to the older female artist, as well as to aspiring journal writers and diarists. Although the journal is highly edited for publication it is an inspiring example of the genre.

Prospect: Journal of an Artist.......2005-09-25

This, the last journal of artist Anne Pruitt, shares her experience with aging, the dilemma of making money in the art world, how to manage your collection, family, and dying. She is an ispiration and explores these tough issues in a tender and determined fashion. As an artist, she reminds me that I am not alone in my process.
