Picturescape - Elisa Gutierrez - Bog

When a young boy visits the local art gallery, he discovers an entirely new world. As he examines the paintings, which depict different regions of Canada, the boy magically leaps inside each one, embarking on a cross-country adventure that broadens his -- and readers' -- knowledge of art. Each of the pieces the boy explores, including works by Emily Carr, Tom Thomson, J.E.H. MacDonald, Alex Colville, and other beloved Canadian artists, is reproduced as a colorful, cut-paper collage. Told entirely without words, "Picturescape" encourages readers to create their own stories for each stop on this amazing journey. This expanded edition includes additional information about the original paintings.
