Paperback. Zustand: Good. Weaving together her intimate paintings with the life stories that inspired them, Art & Love is the memoir of a woman's quest to master the ancient art of egg tempera painting, gain confidence as an artist and find lasting love. It's 1968 and nineteen-year-old Lora Arbrador is handed a one-page recipe for making egg tempera paint. Arbrador is entranced by the luminous medium, but cannot find a teacher to guide her. Despite the free love atmosphere of the Sixties, her romantic life is also marked by frustration. Art and love merge when she meets a tender, charismatic artist and after their eight-month tour of the great museums of Europe, she follows him into a commune that turns out to be a cult.Set against a backdrop of huge cultural changes - from the back-to-the-land movement of 1970's to the AIDS epidemic and sex underground of the 1980s - Arbrador confronts demons of self-doubt and tastes the exhilaration of mastery.Sumptuously illustrated with Arbrador's paintings, Art & Love: My Life Illuminated in Egg Tempera takes the reader on a journey of artistic and emotional fulfillment that will captivate those seeking creative inspiration.Includes the bonus essay: Which Came First? A Taste of Egg Tempera History.…
