She achieved greatness in a cruelly shortened life and stared down nature at its most daunting. Lovely video tribute. She fills me with admiration and tears of gratitude and sadness every time.
I’ve never been so high on art for a very long time how on earth she is not known through out the world if I had my way there would be paintings in the uffizi,the Louvre and St Peter’s and anywhere else not only do you look at these paintings but you feel them thank you Joan 🙏🏻
One of the greats of British Painting & beyond, without a shadow of a doubt. My old Drawing & Painting lecturer @ Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Jimmy Morrison, was a big admirer of her work. He was more than talented himself, understatement, beautifully worked broad, sweeping landscapes, quite monochromatic, there was an underlying reason for this Jimmy told me he was a little colour blind. He was a great inspiration to me & brought out an innate ability within me & still to this Day I’m extremely grateful, and I’ll always remember him for that.
Thank you for the video, I´m a spanish painter, , and the use of the color , the way so truly she painted, so emotinal, "well done " has not much value…...but to be yourself ,. great painter !!

It isn't. it has has been shot on film, possibly 8mm and for people who grew up with crystal-clear HD images, it might grate. There are huge numbers of her paintings online in high-res.
