"143 artists on how they paint, write, perform, direct, choreograph, design, sculpt, compose, dance, etc." -- cover.
Currey explores the daily obstacles and rituals of women who are artists--painters, composers, sculptors, scientists, filmmakers, and performers. We see how these brilliant minds get to work, the choices they have to make: rebuffing convention, stealing (or secreting away) time from the pull of husbands, wives, children, obligations, in order to create their creations; the large and small (and abiding) choices these women made--and continue to make--for their art.
