AbstractHistoryArchive Description
''Jules Leigh Koch is a poet who, like the French and Australian Impressionists works en plein air. He is a colourist, a sketcher with words, who sets up his easel at the beach, in city streets, suburban backyards and gum forests. With affection, he records the quotidian details of our suburbs, working with quick dabs, bright splashes of colour and deftly caught feelings.' - Mike Ladd' (Publication summary)
