Summary: Semi-abstract yet powerful and emotional color paintings
Review: The Joy I Seek is a boldly and empathetically illustrated presentation of fragments from the classic poem "Endymion: A Poetic Romance," by John Keats. Forty-four semi-abstract yet powerful and emotional color paintings by David Finn present and unforgettable representation of the poem's core themes of love between a man and a woman, the joy of human sexuality, and the bittersweet fleetness of life itself. A heartfelt and soulful presentation that wraps love, sex, and death into an explosion of literary and visual high art. Book I 777-781: Wherein lies happiness? In that which becks/Our ready minds to fellowship divine,/A fellowship with essence, full of shine/Full alchemized, and free of space. Behold/The clear religion of heaven!
