Product Description
Being inside one of Grandma Prisbrey's houses was like being inside a rainbow or a kaleidoscope or a jewel.
A vibrant portrait of American visionary artist Grandma Prisbrey
The walls of Grandma Prisbrey's houses glowed and glittered with color because she made them out of bottles. Large and small, fancy and plain, Grandma Prisbrey salvaged every bottle she could find.
Soon people started calling Grandma Prisbrey an artist. "I can't even draw a car that looks like one," she said. "But I guess there are different kinds of art." Lush and lyrical, this is an evocative introduction to the world of visionary, or untrained, art.
