When Joanna FitzPatrick inherited a coastal landscape painting by a great-aunt, her subsequent move to Carmel sparked her curiosity. The resulting exploration led to the book “The Artist Colony” set in Carmel in the 1920’s.
Artist Agnes Pelton traveled and exhibited her art around the world, settling in the Palm Springs area in the 1930’s. In “The Pelton Papers”, Author Mari Coates follows Agnes’s life and her search for her creative vision, self-acceptance, and place in the world.
