ive had a good look at the illustrations and the simplicity is quite terrifying.
Would that be in a good or bad way I wonder?
of course its in a good way,there is a mary figure who appears to be moving forward ,suggested by her posture and the subtle curves in the lower part of her garment ....i stared at that for a wee while.
and many many more ..
Of course there is a ton of propaganda involved,but I just ignored all that and appreciated the skill.
the art is wonderful.
Yes, the art is wonderful. Unfortunately, the reproduction in my book doesn't do it justice.
Her Flower Fairies are wonderful too! :)
Hackers.
Yes, she was a tremendously accomplished artist.
