Hundreds and Thousands
Emily Carr
Emily Carr chose to call her published journals HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS after the minute English candies so small they need to be eaten by the mouthful to be appreciated.
“Too insignificant to have been considered individually, but like Hundreds and Thousands lapped up and sticking to our moist tongues, the little scraps and nothingnesses of my life have made a definite pattern.”
In her notebooks, she chronicled her philosophy of art, her criticism of her own work and others’, her hopes and fears. She also wrote of the subjects she painted—the sea, sky and forests of British Columbia. A personal and passionate manifesto of an extraordinary artist.
