Portrait of Jamaica,
By Elissa "Elissa" (San Francisco) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My Jamaica (Hardcover)
With this collection of paintings, MacMillan has reflected the mystery and the complexity of this amazing island. I've traveled to Jamaica several times and finally now I can take home the beauty and the intensity of the landscape and the people. Cheers to this extraordinary painter and national treasure.

A Treasure to Own,
By
This review is from: My Jamaica (Hardcover)
Judy Ann's book gives a very good survey of her work. I do not know how she was able to select the various images from her vast body of work, but she did an excellent job. Her paintings truly show a lot about Jamaica, from the landscape to the people. I have had the privilege of meeting the artist and I have visited Rockfield; but neither of these experiences influences my judgment of the excellence of her paintings. I particularly enjoyed the short commentary Judy Ann includes with each painting.And what a wonderful introduction by Edward Lucie-Smith. His commentary on Caribbean art in general is very enlightening and his observations of the artist herself are personal and informative. One gets not only the remarkable art, but also a glimpse into the life of the artist. What an illuminating combination. Ed Vaughn
