In Johnny's world quiet is best, but how can you share your ideas and feelings if you don't use your voice?The purpose of this book is to celebrate the act of painting and its ability to express emotions and feelings that can sometimes be difficult to communicate in other ways. The simple narrative follows Johnny Carroll-Pell, an artist who is diagnosed as severely autistic, on his creative journey, using sumptuous imagery that celebrates the texture, movement and colour of paint on canvas.
