I also wrote book reviews for several different publications for years. I got hooked on this group when a friend gave me the first volume of The Letters of Virginia Woolf and I went on to read all six of them. Their books and art have been a passion of mine for a long time!<br />xx SundaySunday Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13148090705938196599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502245000248725118.post-20476901004168720702015-03-11T13:45:45.036-07:002015-03-11T13:45:45.036-07:00DID YOU ever TEACH this STUFF?

They all wrote about Vanessa, especially Virginia, Clive Bell, Quentin Bell, and others. If you read some of these biographies, memoirs, published letters and diaries by her family and friends, you start to get a very good idea of what she was like. I would recommend Quentin Bell's biography of Virginia Woolf and The Letters of Virginia Woolf. <br />xx Sunday Sunday Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13148090705938196599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502245000248725118.post-18986551873372895002015-03-11T10:02:18.836-07:002015-03-11T10:02:18.836-07:00Bettina, thank you so much!

Her painting don't really reflect much about her inner life either.
