Book Review

‘Willoughby’s wide-ranging, intelligent narrative directly captures the reader’s attention … The biography covers more thematic territory than many similar life narratives of Australian women artists, partly due to Willoughby’s skill, but ultimately drawn from Nora Heysen’s multilayered, acutely-felt experience of the world.’ - Juliette Peers.

The Sheila Foundation is a national foundation with a goal to paint women artists back into art history and support contemporary women artists into the future. I am very proud to have my biography of Nora Heysen associated with Sheila and very much appreciate the extended review by Dr Juliette Peers which you can read here featured on the Sheila website.
